Benefits

• Helps Manage Heartburn and Indigestion: Gaviscon Peppermint Relief Oral Suspension is specifically formulated to provide effective relief from heartburn and indigestion. It works by potentially neutralising excess stomach acid and creating a protective layer on top of the stomach contents, which helps to manage the discomfort associated with acid reflux
• Rapid Onset of Action: Users may expect relief in as little as 3 minutes after consumption, making it an ideal choice for those seeking quick relief from sudden episodes of heartburn or indigestion. This rapid action can be especially beneficial during times of discomfort that can disrupt daily activities or sleep
• Long-Lasting Relief: Gaviscon may offer prolonged relief, lasting up to 4 hours, which is significantly longer than many standard antacids. This long-lasting effect means fewer doses are required throughout the day, providing users with sustained comfort and peace of mind
• Suitable for Various Dietary Needs: The formulation is both sugar-free and gluten-free, making it suitable for individuals with specific dietary restrictions or those who are health-conscious. This inclusivity allows a broader range of people to find relief without compromising their dietary preferences
• Gentle on the Stomach: Gaviscon’s gentle formulation is safe for use by pregnant and breastfeeding women, providing them with a reliable option to manage heartburn without worrying about harmful effects on their health or their baby’s
• May Help Manage Gas and Bloating: In addition to addressing heartburn, Gaviscon can help manage symptoms related to gas, such as bloating and belching. This added benefit can significantly improve overall comfort and digestive well-being
• Mechanism of Action: By forming a protective barrier, Gaviscon may help prevent acid from rising into the oesophagus, reducing the likelihood of acid reflux episodes. This dual action of neutralisation and protection is particularly effective for those prone to frequent heartburn
