🎯What it's used for▾
Simethicone is used to relieve uncomfortable gas symptoms across a wide range of oral products. Here's what the available products are approved to treat:
- Pressure, bloating, and fullness commonly referred to as gas — covered by capsule and chewable tablet products including Gas-X, Antigas, Anti-Gas, CVS Health Gas Relief SOFTGEL, FEVIA Gas Control, Discount Drugmart Gas Relief, Extra Strength Gas Relief, Kroger Extra Strength, Gas Relief - Cherry Flavor, and Gas Relief SIMETHICONE 250 mg Anti-gas
- Bloating, pressure, fullness, and stuffed feeling commonly referred to as gas — covered by Pepto capsules and chewable tablets
- Bloating, pressure, and discomfort from gas caused by certain foods or air swallowing — covered by Gas Relief chewable tablets
- Gas discomfort in infants frequently caused by air swallowing or certain formulas or foods — covered by infant-specific products including Mylicon Infants Gas Relief, Walgreens Infants Dye Free Gas Relief, Publix Infants Dye Free, Meijer Infants Gas Relief Drops, and similar infant drops and suspensions
- Symptoms of gas in children and infants frequently caused by air swallowing or certain formulas or foods — covered by infant oral solution and suspension products including Gas-Aid Drops for infants, CVS Health Infant, Best Choice, Infants Gas Relief, and similar products
💊How it's taken▾
Simethicone is taken by mouth and comes in several forms — including capsules, chewable tablets, oral solutions, and oral suspensions (drops). Adult and older-child products are generally taken after meals and at bedtime. Infant drop products should always be shaken well before use, measured with only the enclosed syringe or dropper, and can be repeated as needed after meals and at bedtime — but no more than 12 doses per day.
- The infant dose can be mixed with 1 oz. of cool water, infant formula, or other suitable liquids if needed
- Always use the measuring device included with the infant product — not a different syringe, dropper, or spoon
- Follow your product's specific label or your doctor's instructions for the right timing and amount
🤒Side effects — in detail▾
The FDA product labels for simethicone do not list specific common side effects. However, if something unexpected happens after taking it, contact your doctor or pharmacist.
In case of overdose, call Poison Control immediately at 1-800-222-1222 or seek emergency medical help — even if no symptoms are visible yet.
⚠️Warnings & precautions▾
- Keep all simethicone products out of reach of children.
- If you suspect an overdose, call Poison Control right away at 1-800-222-1222 or get emergency medical help — quick action is important even without visible symptoms.
- For infant drops and suspensions, always use only the measuring device included with the product; using another device can result in an incorrect dose.
🔀What it interacts with▾
The available FDA product labels for simethicone do not identify specific drug, food, or substance interactions.
This is not a complete list of interactions. Always talk with your doctor or pharmacist before starting, stopping, or changing any medication.
📋Before taking it▾
- Keep all simethicone products stored safely out of children's reach.
- For infant products, only use the enclosed syringe or dropper to measure doses — never substitute another device.
- Consult your doctor or pharmacist if you are unsure which simethicone product or form is appropriate for yourself or your child.
🚑If you take too much▾
If you think someone has taken too much simethicone, call Poison Control right away at 1-800-222-1222 or go to an emergency room immediately. The label is clear: get help fast — even if the person looks and feels fine, because signs or symptoms may not appear right away.
📦How to store it▾
store at room temperature, 15°C - 30°C (59˚F - 86˚F) protect from moisture

📈 How widely Simethicone is used
A general measure of how commonly Simethicone is prescribed, based on Medicaid — one of the largest public drug programs. The figure below is prescriptions filled in Q1–Q4 2025, summed across every form and brand of the drug.
Think of this as a proxy for how widely Simethicone is used, drawn from freely available public data. Medicaid is just one program — these numbers don’t include Medicare, other government coverage, or commercial and cash-pay prescriptions, so real-world use is higher than what’s shown here.
How commonly is Simethicone prescribed? Of the 1,596 medications we measure, Simethicone ranks #377 by Medicaid prescriptions — more than 76% of them.
Utilization by Simethicone product
Pick a product to see its own Medicaid numbers. Each chip is one clinical product — a specific strength & dosage form as defined by RxNorm — with brand-name and generic versions combined.
simethicone 80 MG Chewable Tablet Most dispensed
Summed across the 5 of 59 listed NDC products with Medicaid activity — every brand and generic of this exact strength & form. RxNorm 314216
simethicone 66.7 MG/ML Oral Suspension
Summed across the 4 of 98 listed NDC products with Medicaid activity — every brand and generic of this exact strength & form. RxNorm 198857
simethicone 125 MG Chewable Tablet
Summed across the 4 of 94 listed NDC products with Medicaid activity — every brand and generic of this exact strength & form. RxNorm 314221
simethicone 125 MG Oral Capsule
Summed across the 3 of 145 listed NDC products with Medicaid activity — every brand and generic of this exact strength & form. RxNorm 198852
simethicone 180 MG Oral Capsule
Summed across the 5 of 125 listed NDC products with Medicaid activity — every brand and generic of this exact strength & form. RxNorm 252294
Shares are of the Medicaid prescriptions shown here. Product grouping follows RxNorm (the National Library of Medicine’s drug terminology), so “one product” means one strength & dosage form regardless of manufacturer. Dollar figures are gross Medicaid reimbursement before mandatory rebates — rebates (often large, especially for brand-name drugs) are confidential, so actual net cost to Medicaid is lower than shown.
Source: Medicaid State Drug Utilization Data (CMS), aggregated by generic ingredient — summed across every NDC (all brands, strengths, salt forms and dosage forms) of Simethicone, and across all states and both fee-for-service and managed-care claims. A general popularity signal; it excludes Medicare, commercial insurance and cash prescriptions, so it is not total U.S. use. Based on the 21 of 521 listed Simethicone NDCs with Medicaid activity.
🔍 Compare Simethicone products
A representative set of FDA-listed product records for Simethicone — across manufacturers, strengths, and dosage forms, grouped by form with each product’s manufacturer and how the FDA approved it. The same medicine may be made and packaged by different companies, so a single drug can have many directory entries. (It’s also why a refill can look different — a new shape, color, or box — even though it contains the same medication.)

📈 What people report — real-world data (FDA FAERS)
After a medicine reaches the market, patients, doctors and drugmakers can send the FDA reports of problems they think may be linked to it. Here’s what’s been reported for Simethicone — a signal of what to watch for, not proof the drug caused it.
Source: openFDA, from the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS). These are voluntary reports — they don’t prove the drug caused the effect, and counts reflect how often something was reported, not how often it actually happens. Reports also often name the very problem the medicine is taken for — a common reason to file one is that the drug didn’t help — so for a pain reliever you may see “pain” high on the list; that points to why the report was filed, not to the drug causing the symptom. This counts every report that lists Simethicone in any role, so the total runs higher than the FDA’s official dashboard, which counts only cases where the drug is the suspect. For the authoritative figures, see the FDA FAERS Public Dashboard. Always talk to your pharmacist or doctor.

🚨 Recall history
A recall is when a specific batch of a medicine is pulled from the market — usually a manufacturing issue, not a problem with the drug itself. Class I is most serious, Class III least.

RxNorm is the U.S. National Library of Medicine’s normalized drug vocabulary. Its concept hierarchy can include forms that are not currently marketed; the status on each branch compares that concept with current FDA listings. RxCUIs identify vocabulary concepts, not individual packages or manufacturers.
📦 Supply & shortage status
Whether Simethicone is in short supply in the U.S. right now, plus any shortage history the FDA has on record. A shortage usually reflects a manufacturing or demand issue — not a safety problem with the drug.

🔬 Where this comes from
Core label, product, RxNorm, safety, and utilization data on this page come from the sources identified below. AI-written, editorial, and licensed sections are labeled separately.
How we combine label and product data
HelloPharmacist combines public FDA and NLM records; we don’t author the underlying clinical facts. We identified 311 FDA-filed SPL label sets within the page’s selected clinical scope after exact ingredient or ingredient-combination matching and applicable route/form matching. The representative label is the starting point for the displayed reference monograph; the 12 largest stored in-scope SPL records, which may include that representative, are compared section by section, and the longest available version of each section is retained. Forms, routes, brands, labelers, product-listed strengths, and product-record counts are aggregated separately from ingredient-matched FDA NDC Directory records; package records listed above are associated with the linked SPL; and the normalized concept hierarchy comes from NLM RxNorm.
For canonical ingredient pages, bounded product-attributed indication and administration excerpts may be added to the AI evidence, and the generator is instructed to preserve available product, brand, route, and form qualifiers instead of treating one label as universal. Where a section is identified as AI-written, its plain-language text is generated from bounded label evidence. New draft drug pages remain in the admin review queue before first publication. Aphena Pharma Solutions - Tennessee, LLC is the representative DailyMed label linked for verification and dates; it is not the sole source used for the page.
This is general education, not medical advice — always consult your doctor or pharmacist about your medications and any medical condition. For the exact wording of the linked representative label, view that label on DailyMed; some displayed composite sections may come from other in-scope SPL labels.
