NOTE:
Do not confuse with Dimeticone (
).
Compounded preparations of simeticone may be represented by the
following names:
Co-simalcite x/y (BAN)—where x and y are the strengths in milligrams
of simeticone and hydrotalcite respectively.
Pharmacopoeias:
In Eur. (see
) and US.
Ph. Eur. 7 (Simeticone). It is prepared by incorporation of 4 to 7% silica
into poly(dimethylsiloxane) with a degree of polymerisation between 20 and
400. It contains 90.5 to 99.0% of poly(dimethylsiloxane). It is a greyishwhite, opalescent, viscous liquid. Practically insoluble in water and in methyl
alcohol; very slightly soluble to practically insoluble in dehydrated alcohol;
partly miscible with dichloromethane, with ethyl acetate, with methyl ethyl
ketone, and with toluene.
USP 36 (Simeticone). A mixture of fully methylated linear siloxane polymers
containing repeating units of the formula [-(CH3)2SiO-]n, stabilised with
trimethylsiloxy end-blocking units of the formula [(CH3)3SiO-], and silicon
dioxide. It contains not less than 90.5% and not more than 99% of
polydimethylsiloxane and not less than 4% and not more than 7% of silicon
dioxide. A translucent, grey, viscous fluid. Insoluble in water, in alcohol, and
in dehydrated alcohol; the liquid phase is soluble 1 in 10 of chloroform, of
ether, and of benzene, leaving a residue of silicon dioxide. Store in airtight
containers.
Drug Profile (Latest modification: 10-Aug-2009)
Simeticone is a mixture of liquid dimeticones containing finely divided silicon
dioxide to enhance the defoaming properties of the silicone. It lowers
surface tension and when given orally causes bubbles of gas in the
gastrointestinal tract to coalesce, thus aiding their dispersion.
Simeticone is used for the relief of flatulence and abdominal discomfort due
to excess gastrointestinal gas in disorders such as dyspepsia (
gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (
) and
). Doses of 100 to 250 mg three or
four times daily have been given. For many gastrointestinal disorders, it is
given with an antacid.
For doses in children, see
Simeticone is also used as a defoaming agent in radiography or endoscopy
of the gastrointestinal tract.
(last reviewed 2010-08-17; last modified 2009-08-10)
Administration in children (Latest modification: 10-Aug-2009)
Simeticone can be given orally to infants to relieve symptoms of colic (see
Gastrointestinal Spasm,
); 20 to 40 mg is given before feeds.

Gastrointestinal disorders (Latest modification: 06-Aug-2009)
A brief review of the use of simeticone for gastrointestinal symptoms
concluded that although it was commonly prescribed with an antacid, there
was no good evidence that this provided additional benefit. When used alone
simeticone probably helped to relieve minor postoperative and postprandial
symptoms and was a useful aid in upper gastrointestinal endoscopy.1
However, some considered there was no convincing evidence that
simeticone, alone or with antacids, was effective for the treatment of
eructation, flatulence, or other signs or symptoms of excess gastrointestinal
gas.2

Porphyria (Latest modification: 03-Nov-2011)
The Drug Database for Acute Porphyria, compiled by the Norwegian
Porphyria Centre (NAPOS) and the Porphyria Centre Sweden, classifies
silicones when used for gastrointestinal disorders as not porphyrinogenic; it
may be used as a drug of first choice and no precautions are needed.1
