WHAT GAVISCON ADVANCE SACHETS ARE AND WHAT THEY ARE USED FOR
This product belongs to a group of medicines called “reflux
suppressants”. This product forms a
protective layer that floats on top of the stomach contents. This
layer prevents reflux and keeps the
stomach contents away from the lining of the food pipe to relieve the
symptoms of heartburn and acid
indigestion.
This medicine is used for the treatment of symptoms of
gastro-oesophageal reflux such as acid
regurgitation, heartburn and indigestion (related to reflux), for
example, following meals or during
pregnancy, or in patients with symptoms related to reflux
oesophagitis.
You must talk to a doctor if you do not feel better or if you feel
worse after 7 days.
