Relcer Gel 180ml is an over-the-counter (OTC) antacid and anti-flatulent oral suspension primarily used to rapidly relieve heartburn, acid indigestion, gas, and stomach ulcers.
Quad-Action Active Ingredients
Relcer Gel is uniquely formulated with four active ingredients that work simultaneously to manage gastrointestinal discomfort:
-
Aluminium Hydroxide: An antacid that neutralizes existing stomach acid to relieve burning sensations.
-
Magnesium Hydroxide: Acts quickly alongside aluminium to buffer stomach acid, balancing out digestive transit.
-
Simethicone (Activated Dimethicone): An anti-foaming agent that breaks down trapped gas bubbles in the gut to alleviate bloating, belching, and abdominal pressure.
-
Deglycyrrhizinated Liquorice (DGL): Increases natural mucus secretion in the stomach to soothe and protect the inner lining, promoting rapid ulcer healing.
Dosage and Administration
-
Standard Adult Dose: Take 1 to 2 teaspoons (5ml to 10ml) or up to 20ml for severe symptoms.
-
Timing: Consume the gel after meals and at bedtime, or exactly as directed by your doctor.
-
Important Step: Always shake the bottle well before pouring to ensure the active ingredients are mixed uniformly.
Crucial Safety Precautions
-
Kidney Health: If you have kidney disease, do not use Relcer Gel without consulting a physician, as your kidneys may struggle to clear the magnesium and aluminium minerals.
-
Duration Limit: Do not take this medication continuously for more than 14 days without medical supervision. If symptoms persist, a doctor needs to evaluate you for underlying conditions.
-
Pregnancy & Children: Avoid giving this to children or taking it during pregnancy unless explicitly advised by a healthcare provider.
