GAVISCON 24 sugar-free sachets-doses Heartburn leaflet

Gaviscon sachets provide rapid relief from the pain and discomfort of heartburn and acid reflux.
This medicine is designed to relieve stomach upset.

Intended for adults and children over 12, Gaviscon belongs to the family of locally acting antacids and is used during pregnancy, after meals or to relieve esophagitis.
It treats symptoms of gastro-oesophageal reflux disease (GERD ), such as heartburn, acid reflux (pyrosis) and difficult digestion (reflux-related).
On contact with acidic gastric fluid, Gaviscon Suspension Buvable has 3 properties:

  • its lightness enables it to float above the gastric contents at the gastro-oesophageal junction.
  • its viscosity and consistency form a physical barrier to reflux (reducing the number of refluxes). In the event of severe reflux, the suspension regurgitates first into the esophagus, interposing itself between the esophageal wall and the irritating gastric fluid.
  • Its alkaline PH replaces the acidic PH of the reflux fluid. Gastric PH-metry shows that Gaviscon administration increases PH by 2 units in the cardia, but does not alter PH in the rest of the stomach.

If symptoms persist despite Gavison's high dosage, we recommend Nexium Control esomeprazole 20 mg (inexium without prescription) as a one- to two-week course of treatment.

Quickly relieve stomach upset with Gaviscon Sachets-dose

Gaviscon Sachets-dose provides fast relief from the pain and discomfort of heartburn and acid reflux. It's specially formulated to effectively relieve stomach upset and restore optimal digestive comfort.

Heartburn relief

Heartburn can be extremely uncomfortable, causing burning and pain in the abdominal area. Gaviscon Sachets-dose works quickly to neutralize excess acid in the stomach, relieving unpleasant symptoms and offering immediate relief. By forming a protective barrier over the gastric mucosa, this medication helps prevent heartburn, allowing you to regain optimal digestive comfort.

Reducing acid reflux and discharge

Acid reflux and acid indigestion can be both annoying and unpleasant, disrupting your daily digestive comfort. Gaviscon Sachets-dose helps neutralize stomach acidity, reducing frequent acid reflux. By forming a protective barrier around the esophagus, this medication prevents acid reflux, allowing you to enjoy your meals without fear of unwanted symptoms.

Practical format for daily use

Gaviscon Sachets-dose comes in a convenient sachet-dose format, ideal for daily use at home or on the move. Each sachet contains the perfect dose of medication for effective relief of your upset stomach.
