Brief Summary      

This is a multicentric post marketing surveillance study to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of sodium alginate oral suspension in patients with heartburn and indigestion. The study will be conducted at approximately 8 sites across India. Approximately 320 patients suffering with heartburn and indigestion who have been prescribed DigeraftTM as per the approved label in accordance to clinical practice and are willing to sign the PAF will be eligible to participate in the study.

Since, this is an Surveillance study, no additional tests or interventions will be suggested; however, investigations done as a part of routine clinical check-up as per investigator’s routine medical practice will be captured.

The study will involve clinical assessments of patients at baseline visit (Day 1, Visit 1) and at or closest to 7 days after treatment with sodium alginate oral suspension (Visit 2).
