About Digecaine Sugar Free Fruit Punch Oral Gel 200 ml

Digecaine Sugar Free Fruit Punch Oral Gel 200 ml belongs to a group of medicines called antacids used to treat acidity, heartburn, indigestion, gastritis (inflammation of the stomach), and stomach upset.

Digecaine Sugar Free Fruit Punch Oral Gel 200 ml contains dried Aluminium hydroxide gel, Magnesium hydroxide, Simethicone, and Oxetacaine.
