how long does it take gas x to work

Gas-X, which contains the active ingredient simethicone, typically starts to work within 15 to 30 minutes after taking it. It works by breaking up gas bubbles in the digestive tract to relieve pressure, bloating, and discomfort. The speed of relief may vary depending on the dose, form (e.g., chewable tablets may work faster than softgels), and timing of intake (best taken at the first sign of gas discomfort).
