Gaviscon Original Aniseed Relief Oral Suspension effectively forms a robust protective layer on the stomach contents. This key action aids in preventing stomach acid from leaking into the food pipe, a situation that often leads to pain and discomfort. It's a reliable solution for the management of gastro-oesophageal reflux symptoms like acid regurgitation, heartburn, and indigestion.

Heartburn is a common manifestation of acid reflux, occurring when stomach acid ventures out into the gullet or food pipe, irritating its delicate lining, and prompting a burning sensation. Apart from heartburn, acid reflux can lead to a multitude of other symptoms such as a sore throat, bad breath, a sour or bitter taste in the mouth, a cough, hiccups, a hoarse voice, bloating, and nausea.

This liquid heartburn relief medicine is specifically designed to alleviate acid reflux symptoms, including indigestion and acid regurgitation. Gaviscon Original Aniseed Relief Oral Suspension is a prompt responder, providing immediate and enduring relief from heartburn and indigestion. Its effectiveness outlasts standard antacids by up to two times, making it an excellent choice for long-lasting comfort.
