View full FDA label ↗
Signature Care Acid Reducer is a medication that helps treat frequent heartburn, which is when you experience heartburn two or more days a week. It works by reducing the amount of acid your stomach makes, helping to relieve discomfort over time. Adults 18 years and older should take one capsule each day for 14 days, swallowing it whole with a glass of water before breakfast; do not take more than one capsule a day. It's important not to use this medication if you have trouble swallowing food or if you notice blood in your vomit or stools, as these could be signs of a serious condition. If you're taking prescription medications, especially those that may interact with acid reducers, it's best to consult your doctor or pharmacist before starting this medication.
