NAXXID® chewable tablets, 30 ST

Naxxid® chewable tablets contain a mixture of various complementary substances that work together in the oesophagus and stomach.

Immediately after swallowing, Naxxid® transforms into a viscous, light gel which glides along the lining of the inflamed oesophagus. As soon as Naxxid® reaches the stomach, it neutralises the stomach acid. This reaction produces small bubbles that form a stable layer on top of the gastric juice. This stable layer of foam prevents the reflux of irritating gastric juice back into the sensitive oesophagus.

Reflux and the unpleasant heartburn are stopped.

The special formulation of Naxxid® ensures a rapid and long-lasting effect.

As well as heartburn, these preparations are also effective against all other acid-induced conditions (such as gastritis). The active ingredients are not absorbed into the bloodstream. The risk of side effects is therefore extremely low.

What is heartburn and what causes it?

Our stomach acid is responsible for ensuring that the food we eat can be digested. However, if this acid flows back from the stomach into our oesophagus, a burning pain in the chest area becomes noticeable. These symptoms are commonly known as heartburn. In cases of severe reflux, the symptoms can even occur in the larynx or throat.

Triggers for heartburn:

• Caffeine, alcohol, nicotine
• Fatty, sweet or unhealthy food
• Stress, travelling and changes in lifestyle Medicines
• Weakness of the sphincter muscle between the stomach and the oesophagus
• Hiatus in the diaphragm
