GASTIMAX MED, CHEWABLE TABLETS

Gastimax med, chewable tablets, is a Medical Device Class IIa. Active ingredients: sodium alginate, sodium hydrogen carbonate, calcium carbonate. The very effective and rapid gastroesophageal reflux treatment - such as heartburn, acid regurgitation, indigestion, cough and inflammation of pharynx and larynx (related to reflux). Medical device Gastimax med, chewable tablets combines the effects of three main ingredients – sodium alginate, sodium hydrogen carbonate and calcium carbonate - and has a physical mechanism of action that does not depend on absorption into the systemic circulation. Sodium alginate forms a protective layer on gastric mucosa and on gastric content. Concomitantly, sodium hydrogen carbonate and calcium carbonate, in contact with hydrochloric acid from stomach, release carbon dioxide which mobilizes the layers of sodium alginate gel at the surface of gastric content. Thus a protective layer of gel is formed, blocking the reflux of gastric content into oesophagus. Additionally, sodium hydrogen carbonate and calcium carbonate neutralize the excess of stomach acid. Pleasant mild mint flavor and good taste.
