Eno (drug)
Eno is the most global of GlaxoSmithKline's (GSK) products. The fast-acting effervescent fruit salts, used as an antacid and reliever of bloatedness, was invented in the 1850s by James Crossley Eno (1827-1915). It has sales of nearly £30 million; its major markets are Spain, India, Brazil, South Africa, Malaysia and Thailand. It is frequently used as a substitute for baking powder.
History
In the summer, 2010, GSK made the decision to withdraw Eno from the UK market. At the beginning of the year, they withdrew the unique UK 218g jar, replacing it with a European/USA 150g jar, increasing its price by 18%. It can still be found in sachets of 5g, sold in boxes of ten, however stocks are not being replaced. Most existing UK stock has an expiry date of May 2013.
This leaves a major gap in the UK market as its primary competitor, Andrews, also a registered trade mark of GlaxoSmithKline, contains 2.1g of sucrose per 5ml measure, making it unsuitable for diabetics. They are, however readily available at Indian grocery stores in the US and UK. Other effervescent alternatives, such as Resolve, contain paracetamol - unnecessary if you have a simple stomach upset. Even alternatives type 'fruit salts' from Boots and Superdrug contain sucrose, the result being a sweet sugary taste in contrast to the historically advertised Eno "refreshing zing". They are not suitable for diabetics.

by: Johnny BondA friend of mine gave me ten little bottles
Of some special stuff that he brewed up his-self
So I took it and hid it down in my basement
But my wife found out about it and she told me to get
rid of it or else
And since I didn't like the way she said or else
I went down there and proceeded to carry out her
instructions
I sat the ten little bottles on the drainboard
Picked up the first bottle, pulled the cork out of it
And poored it down the sink
That is, um, all except one little swallow - which I
drank
I picked up the next bottle and I pulled the cork out
of it
And poured it down the sink
All except one little swallow - which I drank
I picked up the next bottle and I pulled the sink out
of it
And I poured it down the cork
All except one little swallow - which I drank
I picked up the next cork and I pulled the bottle out
of it
And I poured it down the sink
All except one little drink - which I drank
I picked up the next sink and I pulled the cork out of
And I poured it down the bottle
All except one little swallow - which I sank
I picked up the next drink and I pulled the swallow out
of it
