Simethicone is an orally administered anti-foaming agent used to reduce bloating, discomfort or pain caused by excessive gas a mainly swallowed air, with small amounts of hydrogen and methanea in the stomach or intestines. Simethicone is a mixture of polydimethylsiloxane and hydrated silica gel.
Simethicone is an anti-foaming agent that decreases the surface tension of gas bubbles, causing them to combine into larger bubbles in the stomach that can be passed more easily. Simethicone does not reduce or prevent the formation of gas in the digestive tract, rather, it increases the rate at which it exits the body. However, simethicone can relieve pain caused by gas in the intestines by decreasing foaming which then allows for passing of flatulence. Simethicone is not absorbed by the body into the bloodstream, and is therefore considered relatively safe. National Institutes of Health (NIH) reports there are usually no side effects when simethicone is taken as directed. Although simethicone has also been promoted as a treatment for colic, randomised controlled trials have not demonstrated efficacy for such use.
Simethicone solutions of differing concentration also have industrial applications for reducing foaming in certain chemical processes.
