Default New Gas Medicine I found

I just have to share with you that I have been taking Gas-X since surgery and it never helped much. I tried Lactaid, too because Kelly recommended it to me. During X-mas, I found this new medicine...well new to me from Rite Aid. That is the only place I see it. It cost me a lot, but I said heck it is worth a try. After a week of taking it daily, I noticed the gas pressure has decreased and I feel so much better. It is called GAS PREVENTION made by DIGESTIVE ADVANTAGE. It has a lot of different ingredients in it and simithicone is NOT one of them. It says to take one daily as a preventive measure and so far I love it. It is worth a try. It does say it must be taken on a daily basis to obtain full effect.

ingredients are:
Inulin
Cellulase
Hemicellulase
Invertase
Ganeden Lactobacillus Cultures
Stearic Acid
Carrageenan
Citric Acid
Magnesium Stearate
Silicone Dioxide
Sucralose

Thanks for the advice! I have tried Gas X and it doesn't seem to help me out very much at all. I'll have to give this a shot!
