2 Way Action Against Heartburn and Indigestion.
Gaviscon Extra Chewable tablets with a mint flavour. Each tablet contains 250mg Sodium Alginate, 106.5mg Sodium Bicarbonate and 187.5mg Calcium Carbonate.
This medicine is used for the treatment of acid related symptoms of gastro-oesophageal reflux such as acid regurgitation, heartburn and indigestion which may occur, for example, following meals or during pregnancy.
They work in 2 ways: a combination of two antacids to neutralise excess stomach acid, and an alginate which forms a protective layer that floats on top of the stomach contents, keeping it away from the lining of the food pipe.
How to use: Adults and children over 12 years: 2-4 tablets after meals and at bedtime. Read the package leaflet before use.
