According to the website, the active ingredient in a single regular GasX tablet is 80mg of simethocone. "Action And Clinical Pharmacology: The active ingredient, simethicone acts in the stomach and intestines to disperse and reduce the formation of mucus-trapped gas bubbles. This defoaming action reduces the surface tension of gas bubbles so that they are more easily eliminated. "
