What are the indications, contraindications, dosages and side effects of Gelusil? ## From the information I am finding, Gelusil is used to treat heartburn and gas. It contains: 200 mgs of Aluminum Hydroxide, 200mgs of Magnesium Hydroxide and 25mgs of Simethicone. The product packaging says to chew 2 to 4 tablets hourly as symptoms persist or as directed by a physician. Do you have any other questions? ## The expiration date on the packaging of my gelusil chewable tablets just got torn away from the strip, but the manufacturing date is July 2016. Does anyone know when they expire?

I found several dark free, circular pills with either a M or W printed on one side. No imprints on the other side. Can you please identify? Thanks. ## Hi concernedmom, Based on the description provided, I've identified your pill as a 240mg Mylanta tablet, containing a combination of aluminum hydroxide + magnesium hydroxide + simethicone. The correct marking is actually an "M" as you first mentioned. Mylanta is an over the counter antacid used for treating symptoms of gastroesophageal reflux disease; including heartburn, gas, and acid indigestion. And for verification, the manufacturer is reported to be Johnson & Johnson/Merck Pharmaceuticals, who seem to be on some sort of joint venture. I hope this helps!
