Other simethicone products don't do anything for gas. Apparently this product has a different delivery system to get the simethicone into your body, because this product does reduce gas. It also reduces diarhea. The product is expensive, & hard to find in stores, and the quantity that you get is very small. The product is good, though, but there is a lot of hassle in locating & paying for it.
I use this product daily 2 caplets after first bowl movement. It does what I need it to do, that is, stop the sudden urges to have bowl movements and frequent loose bowl movements. It allows the gas to be dispelled normally and the loose bowl movements to stop. I would like to have a coated tablet for easier swallowing. I would also like to see larger quantities available, example 60 tablets or 90 tablets.
Service and delivery comments:
The delivery was perfect arriving in good condition. It's to bad that a shipping fee is assessed which raises the price.
The Imodium caplets that come in the bottle work the very best for me. I take two each day and that keeps diarrhea in check. Once in awhile I have difficulty swallowing the caplet.
