About Insta Raft Oral Suspension Mint Sugar Free

Insta Raft Oral Suspension Mint Sugar Free belongs to the class of 'gastrointestinal agents,' primarily used to treat gastroesophageal reflux disease, heartburn, and acidity. It helps relieve symptoms of indigestion and gastrointestinal distress. Indigestion is the inability to digest food that is associated with pain and discomfort in the stomach.

Insta Raft Oral Suspension Mint Sugar Free contains 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 alkaline pH, which helps in neutralising the acidic pH in the stomach.

Your doctor will advise the appropriate dose that suits your medical condition. Common side effects of Insta Raft Oral Suspension Mint Sugar Free include flatulence, diarrhoea, nausea, and vomiting. These side effects may not occur in every patient using this medication and differ individually. If the side effects persist longer or worsen, please seek a doctor's advice.

Before using Insta Raft Oral Suspension Mint Sugar Free, let your doctor know if you have liver, kidney, heart diseases, or any other medical history. Please inform your doctor beforehand if you have high blood pressure, congestive heart failure, oedema, hypercalcaemia (excess calcium levels in the blood), nephrocalcinosis (excess calcium deposition in the kidneys), and kidney stones. Pregnant and breastfeeding women should use Insta Raft Oral Suspension Mint Sugar Free with proper consultation and caution. Avoid alcohol intake while using Insta Raft Oral Suspension Mint Sugar Free since it can increase acid production in the stomach.

Diet & Lifestyle Advise

  • Please take foods rich in probiotics such as yoghurt/curd, kefir, sauerkraut, tempeh, kimchi, miso, kombucha, buttermilk, natto, and cheese.
  • Eat fibre-rich food like whole grains, beans, lentils, berries, broccoli, peas, and bananas to aid digestion.
  • Avoid intake of alcoholic beverages as it may increase acidity. 
  • Avoid eating too much, eating too fast, eating high-fat foods, or eating during stressful situations that can burden your stomach.
  • Eating small meals at regular intervals so that stomach does not have to work as hard or as long.
  • Smoking can irritate the stomach lining; hence please avoid it.
  • Sleep with your head elevated (at least 6 inches) above your feet and use pillows. This helps digestive juices to flow into the intestines rather than to the oesophagus.
