About Gaviscon Double Action Liquid Aniseed

Gaviscon Double Action Liquid Aniseed contains a combination of sodium alginate, sodium bicarbonate, and calcium carbonate. It provides fast, effective relief from heartburn, acid reflux, and indigestion by working in two ways: neutralising excess stomach acid and forming a protective barrier over stomach contents to help prevent acid from rising into the oesophagus.

Gaviscon Double Action Liquid Aniseed is designed to relieve symptoms such as burning chest pain, acid regurgitation, and discomfort after meals. The aniseed flavour makes it easier to take, and relief can begin quickly after use.

Gaviscon Double Action Liquid Aniseed is suitable for adults and children aged 12 years and over.
