Gastrocon-A Suspension (500 mg + 100 mg)/5 ml is an effective oral formulation containing Sodium Alginate and Potassium Bicarbonate, designed to provide fast and long-lasting relief from symptoms of acid reflux, heartburn, and indigestion. This combination works through a unique physical mechanism rather than systemic absorption, making it suitable for symptomatic relief of gastroesophageal reflux.

Sodium Alginate forms a protective gel-like “raft” that floats on top of the stomach contents after ingestion. This barrier helps prevent stomach acid from flowing back into the esophagus, thereby reducing irritation and discomfort. Potassium Bicarbonate reacts with gastric acid to release carbon dioxide, which helps the alginate raft float effectively and also contributes to neutralizing excess stomach acid.

Gastrocon-A Suspension acts quickly and provides targeted relief from burning sensation in the chest, acid regurgitation, sour taste in the mouth, and upper abdominal discomfort associated with reflux conditions.
