Description

Gaviscon Peppermint Flavor Syrup 150ml is a clinically proven liquid antacid designed to relieve heartburn, acid reflux, and indigestion. Unlike regular antacids, it works through a unique dual-action mechanism. The formulation contains sodium alginate, sodium bicarbonate, and calcium carbonate, which together create a thick gel-like barrier that floats on top of stomach contents. This barrier prevents stomach acid from flowing back into the oesophagus, effectively reducing irritation and discomfort. At the same time, the antacid components neutralise excess stomach acid already present, providing rapid relief from burning sensations, bloating, and indigestion. The liquid suspension ensures easy swallowing and quick action, while the peppermint flavour helps soothe the throat and oesophageal lining. Suitable for adults and children above 12 years, it is a convenient and reliable remedy for managing everyday acidity and reflux symptoms.

Directions for Use

For best results, follow these steps:

  1. Shake the bottle well before each use.
  2. Measure 10ml to 20ml using a measuring spoon.
  3. Consume directly after meals and before bedtime.
  4. Do not dilute the liquid before consumption.

Standard Dosage: 10–20ml up to 4 times daily or as directed by a healthcare professional.

Pro Tip: Avoid drinking water immediately after taking the syrup to allow the protective barrier to form effectively.

Key Benefits

  • Fast-Acting Acid Reflux Relief: Starts acting within 3 minutes of consumption. The active ingredients rapidly neutralise excess stomach acid to alleviate burning sensations instantly.
  • Forms a Protective Stomach Barrier: Utilises sodium alginate to create a thick "raft" or gel layer on top of stomach contents. This physically prevents gastric reflux from escaping back into the oesophagus.
  • Provides Up to 4 Hours of Comfort: Unlike standard antacids that wash away quickly, this Gaviscon acid reflux syrup provides prolonged relief, ensuring your indigestion remedy lasts through the night or between meals.
  • Clinically Proven GERD Treatment: Effectively manages symptoms of Gastro-oesophageal Reflux Disease (GERD) by targeting the root physical cause of acid escape rather than just temporarily masking the pain.
  • Delivers Soothing Throat Relief: The cool peppermint flavour combined with the cooling liquid formulation immediately soothes the inflamed oesophageal lining and throat affected by harsh stomach acid.
  • Dual-Action Indigestion Remedy: Not only does it block acid reflux, but the added calcium carbonate and sodium bicarbonate act as an upset stomach medicine, neutralising existing acid pools to relieve bloating and discomfort.

FAQs

To get the best results from Gaviscon peppermint syrup 150ml, shake the bottle well and take 10ml to 20ml directly after your main meals and right before bedtime. Do not dilute the syrup in water, as it needs to remain thick to coat your oesophagus and stomach effectively.

It is highly recommended to avoid drinking water or any other liquids for at least 30 minutes after taking Gaviscon. Drinking fluids immediately can wash away the protective alginate gel barrier (the raft) that prevents acid reflux, reducing the medication's effectiveness.

Gaviscon is a highly fast-acting antacid. Most users experience soothing throat relief and a significant reduction in heartburn and acid reflux symptoms within 3 to 5 minutes of consumption.

Standard antacids only neutralise existing stomach acid for a short duration. Gaviscon contains sodium alginate, which actively forms a physical gel barrier (a raft) on top of your stomach contents. This uniquely stops stomach acid from physically travelling up your food pipe, making it a superior GERD treatment.

Yes, Gaviscon is widely considered safe for treating heartburn and gastric reflux during pregnancy and breastfeeding, as it does not enter the bloodstream. However, you should always consult your gynaecologist or healthcare provider before starting any new medication.

Because of its unique barrier-forming properties, a single dose of Gaviscon can provide relief from acid reflux and indigestion for up to 4 hours, which is notably longer than traditional neutralising antacids.

Gaviscon acid reflux syrup is formulated for adults and children aged 12 and older. It should not be given to children under the age of 12 unless explicitly prescribed and monitored by a paediatrician.

While rare, the calcium carbonate in the formulation can occasionally cause mild constipation in some individuals, especially if taken in high doses. If you experience severe bowel changes, reduce your dosage and consult a physician.

Gaviscon is designed to be taken after meals and at bedtime. Taking it before a meal will trap the food above the protective raft, preventing the medication from keeping the stomach acid down where it belongs.

Yes, Gaviscon Peppermint Syrup is entirely sugar-free. It uses saccharin sodium as a sweetener, making it a safe option for individuals monitoring their blood sugar levels or managing diabetes.
