Gaviscon Advance Peppermint Chewable Tablets Pack of 60 is designed to provide fast, effective and long-lasting relief from heartburn and acid indigestion. They can also be used to treat conditions such as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), a condition where the acid from the stomach leaks up into the gullet causing discomfort.
Each tablet contains 500mg sodium alginate and 100mg potassium bicarbonate as the active ingredients. Sodium alginate is a naturally occurring substance that is found in a particular type of seaweed. In the presence of gastric acid, it forms a protective layer on top of the stomach contents, preventing acid from seeping back up into the esophagus. Potassium bicarbonate, on the other hand, is a base that effectively neutralizes the excess acid in the stomach.
The tablets are peppermint-flavored, making them pleasant to chew and swallow. They are also sugar and gluten-free, making them suitable for individuals with dietary restrictions. The chewable format allows for easy consumption, without the need for water. This makes them a convenient option for on-the-go relief, whether at home, at work, or while traveling.
The recommended dosage for adults and children over 12 years is two to four tablets after meals and at bedtime, or as directed by a doctor. For children under 12 years, medical advice should be sought. The tablets should be chewed thoroughly before swallowing.
Warning: Gaviscon Advance Peppermint Chewable Tablets Pack of 60 isnot recommended for individuals with a known allergy to any of the ingredients, and those on a low sodium or potassium diet should consult a healthcare professional before use.
The pack of 60 tablets ensures a ready supply for regular users. The packaging is compact and easy to carry, fitting conveniently into a handbag or pocket. The flip-top lid provides easy access and secure closure, ensuring the tablets remain fresh and protected.
