Method Can Gaviscon be a good antiemetic/antacid substitute when taking SN?

[Avril]

Will it help in SN CTB?

I am not a doctor or pharmacologist, but as far as I know Gaviscon is an antacid, but not an antiemetic. It wouldn't help with nausea at all.

I am following the information I have found as close to the letter as I can. I can not have any mistakes.

It could fill the role of antacid but not antiemetic.

Will it help in SN CTB?

Not an anti-emetic. It will not stop vomiting.

As others have said really. You want something like metoclopramide or similar drugs to stop the vomiting. Gaviscon is a good antacid though.

There is no clear info, but since scopolamine inhibits basal and nocturnal gastric acid secretion, and has been used for gastric ulcers, like tagament, pepcid, and other histamine blockers, I think it would be safe to assume scopolamine would be an ideal substitute. It's also antiemetic as well as it inhibits the vomiting centre from doing its thing.
