In Stomach ulcers

Stomach ulcers are painful sores that develop in the inner lining of the stomach or gut (intestine). Antacid Tablet reduces the amount of acid your stomach makes which prevents further damage to the ulcer as it heals naturally.

In Bloating

Bloating refers to excessive buildup of gas in our stomach due to abnormal muscle movement in our stomach and intestines. Antacid Tablet improves the movement of food in the stomach and helps prevent bloating.
