Heartburn is a symptom of acid reflux or GERD (gastroesophageal acid reflux disease) that can cause stomach acid to rise into your esophagus and create the burning feeling in your chest. Other causes of heartburn include eating certain foods that stimulate an increase in stomach acid production, and even some of your current medications can precipitate heartburn. Increased gas, bloating, and stomach pain can make it difficult for you to get comfortable or to sleep without help to calm down your symptoms.

The active ingredients in Gelusil Antacid/Anti-Gas Tablets work to break up existing gas bubbles in your stomach while acid in your stomach is reduced. Gelusil Antacid/Anti-Gas Tablets are best taken after a meal and before bed, however, if after a couple of weeks your symptoms have not improved or worsened, see your doctor. This could mean you need more than an over the counter medication or your symptoms could indicate something else is going on.
