Medical product for the treatment of gastroesophageal reflux with and without acidity and for the protection of the esophagus
Description:
Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a functional disease associated with numerous typical symptoms, such as:
Heartburn (retrosternal heartburn)
Acid or alkaline regurgitation when lying down or due to ingestion of foods or irritating substances that can cause reflux (alcohol, coffee, tea, chocolate, citrus fruits, etc.)
Spasms
Difficulty swallowing but without pain (dysphagia)
irritating cough
Dysphonia (hoarse voice, aphonia)
These symptoms may or may not be associated with erosive inflammatory lesions of the esophageal mucosa. A poor diet or a stressful lifestyle can have a significant effect on the production of gastric juices, increasing gastric acid and causing an irritating and painful burning sensation, especially after meals. This excessive acidity can also be felt at the entrance to the stomach, with burning sensations, spasms, bloating and nausea. GERD can also occur during sleep since a lying position causes gastric juices to flow into the esophagus. Because the walls of the esophagus are not designed to tolerate gastric acids, this causes a burning sensation in the chest.
Indications
RefluZero is a medical product with a mechanical action that is indicated for:
Symptomatic treatment of gastroesophageal reflux disease. Quickly reduces associated symptoms, such as: heartburn (heartburn), acid regurgitation, epigastric pain, irritative cough and dysphonia
Symptomatic treatment of hyperacidity (occasional pain and burning in the stomach)
RefluZero is an original and innovative combination of chondroitin sulfate, hyaluronic acid and aluminum hydroxide. Refluzero protects against the irritating action of hydrochloric acid produced by the stomach
Initially, the tablets dissolve in the mouth, which stimulates salivation and provides better contact between the components and the esophageal wall, increasing protection and lubrication.
Chondroitin sulfate adheres to the gastroesophageal mucosa and protects it by isolating it from the attack of gastric juices.
Hyaluronic acid, in combination with the adhesive properties of chondroitin sulfate, helps protect and repair damaged esophageal tissue
Aluminum hydroxide acts as an antacid, reducing the impact of gastric juices on damaged mucosa.

Start by dissolving the tablets in your mouth and then chew them. You can drink water or milk after eating
