Uses of Normacid Syrup 60ml Suspension

Normacid Syrup 60ml Suspension is used to reduce stomach acid. It helps heal and prevent stomach and duodenal ulcers, eases heartburn and acid reflux (gastro-oesophageal reflux disease) and relieves acid indigestion. It may also be used where the stomach makes too much acid, and to help protect against ulcers in some people who are at risk.

How Normacid Syrup 60ml Suspension works

Cimetidine blocks histamine H2 receptors on the acid-producing cells of the stomach lining. Histamine is one of the main signals that switches these cells on, so blocking it lowers the amount of acid produced, giving ulcers and an inflamed gullet the chance to heal.
