Medicine Description bambino-gripe
Bambino Gripe 120 mg syrup is a medication designed to alleviate gastrointestinal discomfort, particularly in infants and children. The active ingredient, sodium bicarbonate, functions as an antacid by neutralizing excess stomach acid. When ingested, it reacts with gastric acid (hydrochloric acid), forming carbon dioxide and water. This reaction reduces acidity in the stomach, which can help relieve symptoms of bloating and gas. Additionally, sodium bicarbonate can promote a more alkaline environment in the digestive tract, facilitating the expulsion of gas and contributing to the overall comfort of the digestive system.
