Product Overview
Gaviscon Original Liquid Peppermint 150ml provides fast, effective relief from heartburn, indigestion, and acid reflux. Formulated with sodium alginate and antacids, this liquid works by forming a protective barrier on top of the stomach contents, preventing acid from rising into the oesophagus. The refreshing peppermint flavour makes it easy to take.
How It Works

-
Create a raft-like layer that sits on top of your stomach contents
-
Neutralise excess stomach acid
-
Help soothe burning sensations in the chest and throat
Relief typically begins within minutes and can last for up to 4 hours.
