Iberogas (Bitter Candytuft Fresh Plant Extract, Matricaria Liquid Extract, Menthae Piperitae Folium, Melissae)

• Iberogas, an herbal blend, is used to address mild digestive and stress‑related conditions.
• Digestive discomfort: may help alleviate occasional stomach upset, bloating and promote normal digestion.
• Functional gastrointestinal disturbances: may support relief of mild cramps and irregular bowel habits.
• Mild stress or sleep disturbance: may promote relaxation and improve sleep quality.

• Each botanical component contains bioactive flavonoids, essential oils and terpenes that exert mild antispasmodic, carminative and anxiolytic actions. The extracts modulate smooth‑muscle tone in the gastrointestinal tract, enhance secretion of digestive fluids, and interact with GABA‑ergic pathways in the central nervous system, contributing to a calming effect. These combined actions underlie the product’s traditional use for digestive comfort and stress relief.

Iberogas may be associated with the following adverse reactions, which are generally mild but should be monitored.
