Troubleshooting

Antacid not providing relief

Ensure you are taking the correct dosage (2-4 tablets) as symptoms occur. If symptoms persist or worsen, consult a healthcare professional. Persistent symptoms may indicate a more serious condition.

Experiencing constipation

Reduce the dosage or frequency of use. Ensure adequate fluid intake and dietary fiber. If constipation is severe or persistent, discontinue use and consult a doctor.

Difficulty chewing tablets

Although designed to dissolve smoothly, some may find chewing difficult. Ensure the tablet is adequately chewed before swallowing. If significant difficulty persists, consider an alternative antacid form.
