How does an Effervescent work?

An effervescent is a type of powder that is designed to be dissolved in water. When dissolved, it releases carbon dioxide, which creates bubbles and causes the solution to become effervescent. In the case of stomach-related issues, effervescent tablets or powders are often used as a form of antacid.

When taken as directed, an effervescent powder can help to neutralize stomach acid and provide relief from symptoms of heartburn and indigestion. The carbon dioxide released by the effervescent tablet or powder can help to neutralize the stomach acid, which can help to reduce the burning sensation associated with heartburn. Additionally, the effervescent tablet or powder may also contain ingredients such as baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) or aluminum and magnesium hydroxide which can also neutralize stomach acid and provide relief.
