A new medical device based on a proprietary mixture of natural ingredients for the relief of gastroesophageal reflux symptoms.
Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) is a condition in which the stomach
contents leak backwards from the stomach into the esophagus (the tube
from the mouth to the stomach). This can irritate the esophagus and cause
heartburn and other symptoms. Nowadays, GERD is a common condition and its prevalence varies in different parts of the world. Several population-
based studies have reported its prevalence is more frequent in Western than in Eastern countries. GERD is treated via a stepwise approach that is
based on lifestyle modifications and control of gastric secretion by means
of medical or surgical treatment. RefluGTM is a medical device that acts
locally without systemic absorption via a multiple mechanism of action.
It is specially formulated to relieve symptoms of GERD fast.
Standardized complex of Galactomannan fiber, calcium carbonate,
sodium carbonate, Malva sylvestris, hyaluronic acid.
Symptoms associated with esophageal reflux (moderate uncomplicated GERD), reflux esophagitis, acid regurgitation, gastric acidity, heartburn and occasional digestive issues.
Evaluation of raft-forming capacity of a medical device in liquid stick packs (data on file). Anti-heartburn effects of a fenugreek fiber product. (DiSilvestro et al 2010).
