Gaviscon

Gaviscon provides fast-acting relief for heartburn and indigestion. This oral suspension contains sodium hydrogen carbonate and sodium alginate to neutralize stomach acid and form a protective barrier.

Gaviscon is commonly used to treat heartburn, indigestion, and acid reflux. It works by neutralizing stomach acid and forming a protective layer over the stomach contents, which can help to prevent acid from flowing back into the esophagus. Many people use Gaviscon to manage symptoms of acid reflux and heartburn, especially after meals.

Gaviscon typically provides quick relief from heartburn and indigestion symptoms. Some users may experience a temporary change in taste or mild stomach discomfort. The effects of Gaviscon are generally short-lived, providing relief for a few hours.

Gaviscon should be used as directed. It is important to shake the bottle well before use to ensure the suspension is properly mixed. Individuals with certain medical conditions or those taking other medications should consult a healthcare provider before using Gaviscon.

Gaviscon may interact with other medications, particularly those that affect stomach acid. It is advisable to avoid taking Gaviscon with other oral medications, as it can interfere with their absorption. Always consult a healthcare provider if you are taking other medications.
