What Is Motilium 10?

Motilium 10 is a remedy specifically developed to relieve queasy, heavy bloated stomach symptoms.  Motilium 10 can clear these symptoms, often experienced after eating and drinking, to help get your stomach working properly again.

What Symptoms Can It Treat?

• Feeling sick or queasy (nausea)
• Excessive fullness
• Heavy bloated feeling
• Burping (belching)
• Stomach ache (general discomfort or a dull ache)

How Does Motilium 10 Work?

Motilium 10 helps restore your stomachs' natural digestive rhythm and therefore helps to move food normally through the system.  That's why your GP or pharmacist might refer to Motilium 10 as a 'motility' product.  You see, your digestive system needs help to keep "on the move" to function properly and that is where Motilium 10 comes in; it helps the stomach to restore the normal flow of food through the system.

Unlike other products available for you to purchase, Motilium 10 is the only remedy that specifically relieves dysmotility (when your stomach's processing powers slow down, leaving you with a queasy, heavy bloated stomach) and the uncomfortable symptoms that can go with it.

How Do I Take Motilium 10?

Motilium 10 comes in small, easy to swallow tablets. Adults and young people aged 16 years and over simply take one tablet up to three times a day and at night when you need to. You should not take more than 4 tablets in 24 hours.
