Gastrocon-R Suspension (500 mg + 267 mg + 160 mg)/10 ml is a specialized antacid formulation combining Sodium Alginate, Sodium Bicarbonate, and Calcium Carbonate to provide rapid and effective relief from acid-related digestive discomforts such as heartburn, acid reflux, and indigestion. This combination works both locally in the stomach and esophagus, offering immediate soothing action while providing a longer-lasting protective effect against gastric acid irritation.

Sodium Alginate forms a viscous gel or “raft” that floats on the surface of stomach contents, preventing acid reflux into the esophagus and protecting the lining from irritation. Sodium Bicarbonate acts as a fast-acting acid neutralizer, providing quick relief from burning sensations in the chest and upper abdomen. Calcium Carbonate not only neutralizes excess gastric acid but also prolongs the antacid effect, helping maintain comfort for several hours. Together, these ingredients deliver a synergistic effect that addresses both the symptoms and causes of acid reflux.

Gastrocon-R Suspension is particularly suitable for patients who require immediate relief after meals or during episodes of gastroesophageal discomfort. Its liquid form allows for rapid gastric coating and effective action, making it convenient for both adults and children.

• Sour belching or burning sensation after meals

Dosage and Administration

The dosage should be tailored to individual patient needs and severity of symptoms. Typical administration guidance includes:

• Shake the bottle thoroughly before use

• Administer the suspension after meals and before bedtime for optimal effect

• Do not exceed the recommended dose unless instructed by a healthcare professional

• If symptoms persist for more than a few days, seek medical advice

The suspension allows rapid action as the gel barrier forms quickly and the acid-neutralizing agents start working immediately.

• Not suitable for long-term treatment of underlying gastrointestinal disorders without professional guidance

• Patients with persistent, severe, or unexplained symptoms should consult a physician
