Gaviscon Advance Liquid Peppermint Flavour (500ml Bottle)

Gaviscon Advance Liquid Peppermint (500ml Bottle): contains double the concentration of sodium alginate compared with Gaviscon Original and therefore provides the strongest Gaviscon treatment that works as a raft. It does this by forming a thick layer on top of the stomach contents which prevents acid rising back up into the food pipe causing the acid heartburn.
