Gelusil is an antacid and anti-gas medication used to treat symptoms of heartburn, acid indigestion, upset stomach, bloating caused by gas, and stomach discomfort caused by overeating. It contains a combination of aluminum hydroxide, magnesium hydroxide, and simethicone, which work together to neutralize stomach acid and break up gas bubbles in the digestive tract.

Gelusil is available in different forms, including chewable tablets that may be used as a rescue treatment for immediate heartburn relief. As with any medication, follow the instructions on the label and consult a healthcare provider as needed. To use Gelusil tablet, take it by mouth usually after meals and at bedtime as needed. Gelusil chewable tablets need to be chewed thoroughly before swallowing with a full glass of water.

The dosage may vary depending on the age of the patient and the severity of the symptoms. Adults and children 12 years of age and older can chew 2 to 4 tablets. Repeat hourly if symptoms return or as directed by a physician. Do not take more than 12 tablets in a 24-hour period or use the maximum dosage for more than 2 weeks, except under the advice and supervision of a physician.

Gelusil should be stored in a closed container at room temperature, away from heat. As always, consult a healthcare provider if symptoms persist or worsen.
