Gaviscon Double Action Mint Flavour Tablets Pack of 24

Gaviscon Double Action Mint Flavour Tablets Pack of 24 offers powerful relief by tackling the symptoms of indigestion and heartburn in two distinct ways:

• Neutralising Excess Stomach Acid: The active antacids in Gaviscon Double Action Mint Flavour Tablets Pack of 24, calcium carbonate and sodium bicarbonate, work to quickly neutralise excess stomach acid. This helps to alleviate the pain and discomfort associated with acid build-up.
• Forming a Protective Barrier: Simultaneously, sodium alginate creates a protective barrier that floats on top of your stomach contents. This barrier helps to prevent acid from rising into your food pipe, providing long-lasting relief from the burning sensation in your chest, often referred to as acid reflux.

These convenient, mint-flavoured chewable tablets are suitable for use after meals and at bedtime, providing comprehensive relief from symptoms like acid regurgitation and hyperacidity. Trust Weldricks Pharmacy to deliver your Gaviscon Double Action Mint Flavour Tablets Pack of 24 discreetly and efficiently, helping you manage your everyday health with confidence.
