Gaviscon Dual Action Mixed Berry 48 Tablets December 2024
Gaviscon Dual Action Mixed Berry Tablets brings fast, soothing and long-lasting relief from the pain and discomfort of heartburn (gastric reflux) and indigestion.
It works in two different ways:
- More effective reduction of excess stomach acid to relieve discomfort.
- Forming a protective layer over the stomach contents to soothe the burning pain in your chest.
Gaviscon Dual Action Mixed Berry Tablets works in two different ways to effectively relieve the symptoms of heartburn and indigestion:
- The antacid – the antacid in Gaviscon Dual Action neutralises excess stomach acid to relieve the pain and discomfort of indigestion.
- The raft – the sodium alginate in Gaviscon Dual Action forms a thick layer (think of it like a ‘raft’) on top of your stomach contents. The ‘raft’ then acts as a physical barrier that helps keep your stomach contents where they belong – in your stomach – and not in your food pipe where they can cause discomfort and burning pain.
