Usage and Instructions
Adults and over 18 year old:
Take one tablet daily with a sip of water.
You can take your tablet at any time of the day either with food or on an empty stomach. Do not chew or crush the tablet.
Alternatively, you can put the tablet in a glass of water. Stir until the tablet breaks up (the mixture will not be clear) then drink. Always stir the mixture just before drinking it. To make sure that you have drunk all of the medicine, rinse the glass very well with half a glass of water and drink it.
Even if you don't feel improvement immediately, do not take more than the recommended dosage. You may need to take the tablets for 2 or 3 days in a row before your reflux symptoms get noticeably better.
Do not take these tablets for more than 14 days consecutively.
When your reflux symptoms have completely gone you should stop taking this medicine.
If your reflux symptoms persist or worsen after taking this medicine for 14 days in a row, speak to your doctor.
