About Gaviscon Double Action Liquid Suspension
Gaviscon Double Action provides fast and long-lasting relief from heartburn, acid reflux and indigestion.

The active ingredients, sodium bicarbonate and calcium carbonate, help to neutralise excess stomach acid, while the alginate forms a protective barrier over the stomach contents, soothing the burning sensation in your chest.
