Gaviscon Advance Mint Chewable Tablets Information
What are Gaviscon Tablets?
Gaviscon Advance forms a protective barrier that helps keep stomach acid from rising back up the oesophagus (food pipe).
We know how disruptive heartburn and acid reflux can be, which is why Advance is designed for long-lasting relief (up to 4 hours)- to help you get on with your day.
Gaviscon Advance’s extra strength formulation has twice the concentration of sodium alginate - forming a strong and resilient ‘raft’ in the process.
What are Gaviscon Tablets used for?
Gaviscon tablets provide effective symptomatic relief from the pain and discomfort caused by indigestion and heartburn.
Indigestion and heartburn can affect anyone and most commonly occur after eating. Indigestion can cause you to feel pain and discomfort in your upper abdomen that may be accompanied by feeling bloated, sick or having excess wind.
Heartburn or acid reflux can also be a symptom of indigestion that results in a burning pain in the chest caused by stomach acid coming up into the food pipe.
If you are unsure whether you are suffering from indigestion or heartburn or you are experiencing recurrent episodes you should speak to a doctor or pharmacist for advice.
