  • Neutralising excess stomach acid to relieve the pain and discomfort.
  • Forming a protective barrier over the stomach contents to soothe the burning pain in your chest.

Gaviscon Double Action Liquid Sachets are used for the treatment of symptoms of gastro-oesophageal reflux such as acid regurgitation, heartburn and indigestion which may occur, for example following meals or during pregnancy, and for symptoms of excess stomach acid (hyperacidity).
