Medicine Description fawar-fruit
Fawar Fruit 5 gm sachets is a medication that combines citric acid, sodium bicarbonate, and tartaric acid to provide symptomatic relief from acidity-related discomfort. Upon ingestion, sodium bicarbonate reacts with stomach acid to produce carbon dioxide gas, which results in a neutralizing effect, alleviating symptoms of heartburn and indigestion. Citric acid enhances the solubility and absorption of the bicarbonate, while tartaric acid contributes to the effervescence, aiding in the rapid relief of gastric discomfort. This combination effectively promotes temporary alkalinity in the stomach, facilitating the reduction of acidity and bloating.
