• Raftcid Tablet 15's is a combination of Calcium carbonate, Sodium alginate, and Sodium bicarbonate.
• Calcium carbonate is an antacid that works by decreasing the amount of acid in the stomach.
• Sodium alginate forms a viscous gel by reacting with stomach acid. This gel floats on the surface of stomach contents and acts as a blockade to reduce the reflux.
• Sodium bicarbonate is also an antacid and has an alkaline pH, which helps neutralise the acidic pH in the stomach.
• Collectively, Raftcid Tablet 15's treats stomach disorders like reflux, acidity, heartburn, and indigestion.
