Gaviscon Liquid Sachets bring fast, soothing and long lasting relief from the pain and discomfort of heartburn and acid indigestion which, for example, can occur after meals or during pregnancy. They belong to a group of medicines called 'reflux suppressants', which form a protective layer on top of the stomach contents to prevent stomach acid escaping from the stomach where it works into the food pipe where it hurts.

What is this product? Each sachet (10ml) of oral suspension contains 500 mg sodium alginate, 267 mg sodium bicarbonate and 160 mg calcium carbonate as the active ingredients. It also contains carbomer, methyl parahydroxybenzoate (E218), propyl parahydroxybenzoate (E216), sodium saccharin, sodium hydroxide, natural mint flavour and purified water. The product is sugar-free and colour-free. You can take this product if you are pregnant or breast feeding.

Dosage: For oral administration. Adults, including the elderly and children 12 years and over: One to two 10 ml sachets after meals and at bedtime or as directed.

Before taking this product: Each sachet (10ml) of oral suspension contains 6.2 mmol of sodium and 1.6 mmol of calcium. If you have been advised a diet restricted in either of these please consult your doctor before taking this product. This product contains methyl (E218) and propyl (E216) parahydroxybenzoates which may cause allergic reactions (possibly delayed). Do not take if you know you are allergic to any of the ingredients as skin rashes and difficulty in breathing have been reported.

Consult your doctor if you experience these or any other side effects.

KEEP OUT OF THE REACH AND SIGHT OF CHILDREN.

After taking this product: If you forget a dose it is not necessary to double the dose next time, just carry on taking as before. If symptoms persist after seven days consult your doctor. If you take too much of the medicinal product you may feel bloated. It is unlikely to cause you any harm, but please consult your doctor or pharmacist.
