How does Gaviscon Advance Aniseed Liquid work?
Gaviscon Advance Aniseed Liquid operates by creating a dense protective layer (or raft) that floats on the stomach's contents. This raft blocks acid from refluxing into the oesophagus and also includes an antacid that neutralizes excess stomach acid, alleviating pain and discomfort.
