Key Features

• Dual-Action Relief: Effectively relieves existing heartburn and can be taken in advance to prevent symptoms before they start.

• OTC Strength: Provides the same active ingredient as prescription-strength Pepcid AC but in a 10 mg dose suitable for self-care and occasional use.

• Extended Duration: A single tablet can control stomach acid for up to 12 hours, providing both day and night-time relief.

• Preventative Use: Can be taken 15 to 60 minutes before consuming "trigger" foods or drinks (such as spicy meals, caffeine, or alcohol) to avoid discomfort.

• Geri-Care Quality: Trusted by long-term care facilities and pharmacies for consistent performance and patient safety.

Clinical Applications

• Heartburn Relief: Relieves symptoms of acid indigestion and sour stomach.

• Heartburn Prevention: Prevents symptoms when taken shortly before a meal that is known to cause indigestion.

• Dietary Management: Used as an adjunct to lifestyle changes for patients suffering from occasional acid reflux.

⚠️ Usage Note: Do not take more than 2 tablets in 24 hours. For prevention, swallow one tablet with a glass of water 15 to 60 minutes before eating food or drinking beverages that cause heartburn.

⚠️ Safety: If symptoms persist for more than 2 weeks, stop use and consult a physician, as this may be a sign of a more serious condition.

⚠️ Drug Interaction: Consult a doctor or pharmacist before use if you are taking other acid reducers or have kidney disease.
