Abstract
An antigas and/or antiflatulent composition comprising an admixture combinate of liquid simethicone and powdered calcium silicate. The simethicone and calcium silicate are blended and sheared to assure a uniform free-flowing powder combined of less than 50 micron particle size. The simethicone and calcium silicate are preferably present in equal amounts by weight. Excipient materials may be blended with the powdered combinate and prepared in a unit dose in the form of a compressed tablet or powder-filled capsule.
Claims6
A consumable antigas and/or antiflatulent composition comprising a powdered combinate of particulate calcium silicate and simethicone, wherein said simethicone is taken up by the calcium silicate particles by sorption, wherein said calcium silicate comprises about 40 to 60 percent, and said simethicone comprises about 60 to 40 percent, by weight, of said powdered mixture, and wherein said powdered combinate has a particle size of less than 50 microns.
A consumable antigas, and/or antiflatulent composition comprising a free-flowing powdered combinate prepared in a unit dosage in the form of a compressed tablet or powder-filled capsule of equal amounts of synthetic calcium silicate particles and simethicone U.S.P., said powdered combinate having a particle size of less than 50 microns.
