Dimethicone is a common medication that is often used to treat stomach problems. It is an over-the-counter medicine available at pharmacies. Dimethicone is primarily used to relieve symptoms such as heartburn, excess stomach acid, and indigestion. It relieves stomach discomfort by forming a protective coating that helps reduce irritation of the stomach lining by stomach acid. When taking this medicine, please follow the advice of your doctor or pharmacist regarding the correct dosage and usage. If any adverse reactions occur or symptoms persist, consult a healthcare professional immediately. When storing and using, please follow the instructions on the medicine package insert and keep it dry and away from light. If you have any questions or require further information, please consult a healthcare professional.
Directions: Take the medication before or after meals, as recommended by your physician or pharmacist. If you experience stomach upset, take with food. Avoid taking it with dairy products as it may affect the efficacy of the drug. Avoid activities that require high alertness while taking this medication.
Dosage Guidelines: For adults, the recommended starting dose is 100 ml, 3 times a day. The dosage may be adjusted based on individual circumstances and physician advice. For children, the dose should be adjusted according to age and weight; ask your doctor to determine the correct dose. It is not recommended to give children an overdose and the product must be used strictly according to the doctor's instructions.
