What is simethicone?

0

The active ingredient, simethicone, has anti-foaming or anti-bubbling activity. simethicone acts in the stomach and intestines by altering the surface tension of gas and mucus bubbles, enabling them to group together (coalesce). This action accelerates the passage of gas through the intestine either through belching or passing of flatus.
