Shankhacid P

Shankhacid P Tablet – Therapeutic Description

Shankhacid P Tablet is a scientifically formulated Ayurvedic gastro-protective and antacid preparation designed to provide rapid and sustained relief from hyperacidity, gastritis, and associated Pitta disorders. Enriched with classical deepana–pachana herbs and mineral-based antacids, it offers a dual mechanism of action—neutralizing excess gastric acid while strengthening digestive function.
