Kool AT Gel

Kool AT Gel is used to relieve conditions associated with excess stomach acid, irritation of the digestive tract, and gas-related discomfort. The following are some of the common conditions for which this medicine may be recommended:

• Heartburn and Acid Reflux: Kool AT Gel helps by neutralising excess stomach acid and protecting the food pipe from acid irritation, relieving the burning sensation in your chest.
• Stomach and Duodenal Ulcers: It provides relief from ulcer pain by temporarily numbing the stomach lining and lowering acid levels, allowing the tissues to heal.
• Gas and Bloating: It breaks down gas bubbles in the stomach and gut, making them easier to pass and reducing painful abdominal pressure.
• Oesophagitis: It helps soothe inflammation in the food pipe by preventing stomach acid from rising and irritating the sensitive tissues.
   

By reducing stomach acid, soothing irritated tissues, relieving pain, and helping eliminate trapped gas, Kool AT Gel offers several important benefits, including:

• Rapid Pain Relief: The local anaesthetic component in Kool AT Gel quickly numbs the sensitive, irritated lining of your stomach and food pipe, providing fast relief from intense burning and ulcer pain.
• Effective Acid Balancing: It works as an antacid shield, neutralising high acid levels in the stomach almost immediately to prevent heartburn from worsening.
• Gas Pressure Reduction: By merging small, trapped gas bubbles into larger ones, the medicine allows your body to eliminate gas naturally, relieving uncomfortable bloating and stretching in your abdomen.
• Protective Coating: The thick suspension directly coats the irritated walls of your digestive tract, acting as a physical barrier that protects raw areas and promotes natural healing.
   

• Kool AT Gel can be taken with or without food as advised by your doctor.
• Follow your doctor's instructions on the dosage and timing of this medication to ensure safety.
• Measure the advised dose using the measuring cup/dosing syringe and take it orally.
• Shake the bottle well before use.

• Eat Smaller Meals: Eat smaller, more frequent meals throughout the day rather than three large meals to avoid overloading your stomach and triggering acid production.
• Avoid Trigger Foods: Identify and limit trigger foods that aggravate reflux and gas, such as spicy, fried, or highly acidic foods, chocolate, caffeine, and carbonated drinks.
• Stay Upright After Eating: Avoid lying down, bending over, or doing heavy physical activity for at least two to three hours after eating.
• Elevate the Head of Your Bed: Elevate the head of your bed by 6 to 9 inches using blocks or a wedge pillow to prevent stomach acid from travelling up into your throat while you sleep.
• Wear Loose-Fitting Clothing: Wear loose-fitting clothes around your midsection to reduce pressure on your abdomen, which can force acid upward.
   

• Inspect Before Use: Always visually inspect the liquid before taking it; do not use the medicine if you notice clumps, discolouration, or foreign particles that do not disappear after shaking.
• Avoid Prolonged Self-Treatment: Never take this medicine continuously for more than two weeks unless your doctor has specifically instructed you to do so, as it may mask more serious stomach conditions.
• Separate From Other Medicines: Avoid taking other oral medicines within 2 hours of taking Kool AT Gel, because the antacid can block your body from properly absorbing those medications.
• Monitor Kidney Health: If you have a history of kidney disease, monitor your health closely and attend all follow-up appointments to have your blood mineral levels checked.
• Do Not Share Medication: Do not share this medicine with anyone else, even if they have identical symptoms of heartburn or stomach pain.
