Rapid Relief for Stomach Ulcer Pain and Gastritis
Nugel-O Antacid (Mint Flavour) is a high-performance oral suspension formulated to provide rapid relief from severe gastrointestinal discomfort. Unlike standard antacids, Nugel-O is specifically designed for individuals suffering from peptic ulcers and gastritis. The "O" in the name stands for Oxetacaine, a potent local anaesthetic that provides topical relief by numbing the sensitive stomach lining and esophagus.
Multi-Action "Triple Antacid" Formula
Nugel-O uses a comprehensive approach to target digestive issues:
- Anaesthetic Pain Relief: Oxetacaine quickly numbs the stomach mucosa to stop the sharp, burning pain often associated with ulcers.
- Triple-Action Neutralization: A combination of Aluminium Hydroxide, Magnesium Hydroxide, and Magnesium Trisilicate effectively neutralizes excess stomach acid.
- Anti-Reflux Protection: Alginic Acid forms a physical "raft" or barrier over the stomach contents, preventing acid from rising and causing heartburn.
- Bloating and Gas Relief: Simethicone (Dimethicone) helps break down gas bubbles, easing flatulence and the feeling of fullness.
Why Choose Nugel-O Suspension?
In Nigeria, where spicy foods and stress can trigger "pepperish" stomach sensations, Nugel-O provides a dual approach. It doesn't just neutralize acid; it physically numbs the source of the pain. The mint flavour provides an additional cooling sensation, making it a preferred choice for fast-acting relief from hyperacidity and reflux oesophagitis.
Dosage and Administration
For adults, the typical dose is 10ml to 15ml taken twice daily, or as directed by your healthcare provider. It is usually most effective when taken 20 minutes to 1 hour after meals and at bedtime.
