1. What is Espumisan 100 mg/ml and what is it used for
This medicine is used for the symptomatic treatment of bloating (gas accumulation) in all age groups. It reduces the surface tension of gas bubbles contained in food masses and in the gastrointestinal tract mucus, causing them to burst. This allows the released gases to be absorbed through the intestinal wall or eliminated from the gastrointestinal tract as a result of intestinal peristalsis.
Indications
Espumisan 100 mg/ml is used:
Without consulting a doctor:
- for the symptomatic treatment of gastrointestinal disorders associated with excessive gas accumulation, such as bloating or increased gas production in the gastrointestinal tract;
After consulting a doctor:
- for the symptomatic treatment of gastrointestinal disorders associated with excessive gas accumulation, such as increased gas production in the gastrointestinal tract in the postoperative period;
- as an adjunct in preparing patients for abdominal cavity examinations (e.g., radiological and ultrasonographic examinations and endoscopic examinations, as an addition to the contrast agent suspension).
If after 3 days there is no improvement or the patient feels worse, they should consult a doctor.
