Gaviscon

Gaviscon was the first remedy of its kind available in Australia. It contains sodium alginate, which is naturally derived. It is classed as an “alginate” which means that it forms a “protective layer” over the stomach contents which helps to prevent acid coming back up into the oesophagus (food pipe). As such, it is fast acting and has a soothing effect, lasting up to four hours. It is effective at treating the classic symptoms of heartburn (a burning pain in the chest and mild acid regurgitation).

Choose from either a liquid (aniseed or peppermint flavour) or tablets (lemon or peppermint flavour).

Gaviscon liquid soothes in just 4 minutes and last for up to 4 hours.

Always read the label. Use only as directed. If symptoms persist see your Health Care Professional. Contain calcium carbonate & sodium bicarbonate.
