Medicine Description fawar-fawakeh
Fawar Fawakeh 6 sachets is a medication formulated to provide symptomatic relief from conditions caused by excess gastric acidity. It combines citric acid, sodium bicarbonate, and tartaric acid, which work synergistically to neutralize stomach acid. When ingested, sodium bicarbonate reacts with gastric acid to form carbon dioxide and water, effectively reducing acidity in the stomach. Citric acid enhances this effect by promoting a more favorable pH balance, while tartaric acid aids in the overall effervescence and solubility of the formulation. This neutralization process alleviates the discomfort associated with conditions such as heartburn and gastroesophageal reflux, providing temporary relief from symptoms caused by increased acidity.
