Gaviscon Peppermint Flavor Liquid, 150 ml is a liquid antacid and heartburn relief formula designed to help manage symptoms of heartburn, indigestion, excess acidity, gas, bloating, and acid reflux. It comes as a 150 ml oral suspension (liquid) with a refreshing peppermint flavour that many people find pleasant and easy to take.
Unlike simple antacid tablets, Gaviscon works via a dual action mechanism: it both neutralises excess stomach acid and creates a protective gel-like barrier (raft) over the stomach contents to help prevent acid from rising back up into the oesophagus — which can reduce irritation and discomfort.
