Lefaxin chewable tablets

Disturbed digestive processes often lead to flatulence.

Application

1. WHAT ARE LEFAXIN CAUTABLETS AND WHAT ARE THEY USED FOR?

Disordered digestion often leads to flatulence. The increased gases are then present in the gastrointestinal tract as a sluggish, fine-bubbled foam. The simethicone present in Lefaxin chewable tablets has a special surface effect that causes the foam-like bubbles to disintegrate immediately after taking the preparation. The gases released in this way can now escape naturally.
The intake of Lefaxin chewable tablets leads to rapid freedom from symptoms with a feeling of relief and eliminates the feeling of tension in the bloated stomach. Heart constriction caused by displacement of the diaphragm also subsides after a short time.
The active ingredient itself is not absorbed into the bloodstream, but is excreted unchanged.

It is used:
for excessive gas formation and gas accumulation in the gastrointestinal tract (meteorism) with complaints such as flatulence, a feeling of fullness and a feeling of tension in the upper abdomen, caused, for example, by swallowing air or by a strong stomach.
for increased gas formation after operations as well as Roemheld's syndrome.
to prepare the gastrointestinal area for diagnostic examinations to reduce gas shadows and to improve the visualisation and/or visualisation of the mucous membranes.
