Digel Mint Syrup 170 ml

Digel Mint Syrup 170 ml belongs to a group of medicines called 'antacids' used to treat acidity, heartburn, indigestion, gastritis (inflammation of the stomach), and stomach upset. The stomach is usually protected from the acid by a mucous layer. In some cases, the mucous layer becomes eroded due to excessive acid production, leading to complications such as acidity and heartburn.

Digel Mint Syrup 170 ml is a combination of four drugs: aluminium hydroxide, magnesium hydroxide, simethicone, and sodium carboxymethylcellulose. It provides a high acid-neutralising capacity. Thus, it relieves acidity and gas whenever acidity strikes. It provides effective action against acidity, reduces stomach pain, and protects the stomach from making excess acid for long-lasting relief.

In some cases, you may experience certain common side effects such as constipation, loss of appetite, weakness, and diarrhoea. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if you experience these side effects persistently.
