Dosage of Getzome Insta

• Adults: Usually one sachet (20mg) daily.
• Duration: For simple heartburn, it may be used for 14 days. For ulcers or GERD, your doctor may prescribe a longer course (4–8 weeks).9
• Note: This medication is most effective when taken for several consecutive days rather than just "as needed."

Proper Administration

• Preparation: Empty the contents of one sachet into a small cup containing 1 to 2 tablespoons of water.
• Method: Stir well and drink immediately. If any powder remains, add a little more water, stir, and drink again. Do not use other liquids like milk or soda to mix the powder.10
• Timing: For best results, take Getzome Insta on an empty stomach, at least 30 to 60 minutes before your first meal (usually breakfast). Taking it before a meal ensures the medicine is present when the stomach's acid pumps are most active.11

How to Store and Dispose of Getzome Insta

• Identify Triggers: Keep track of foods (like spicy dishes, citrus, or caffeine) that trigger your reflux and try to avoid them while your stomach heals.
