Product Info:

Simethicone, commonly sold as Gas-X and several other names , is an anti-foaming and anti-flatulent agent used to treat discomfort, pain, bloating, burping, and flatulence caused by excessive intestinal gas in dogs and cats.

How It Works:

Simeticone works by decreasing the surface tension of gas bubbles which allows the small bubbles to form into larger bubbles. The larger bubbles are more easily eliminated by burping or passing intestinal gas (flatus). It causes the collapse of foam bottles. Simeticone does not appear to decrease the production or formation of gas but works by improving gas elimination from the gastrointestinal tract.

Administration:

In dogs, the dose of Simethicone recommended for treatment of excessive gastrointestinal gas ranges from 25 mg total dose for small dogs and up to 200 mg total dose for large dogs every 6 to 12 hours as needed.

In cats, the liquid formulations are most often used with doses that range from 3 mL to 0.5 mL every 8 to 12 hours as needed.
