Gaviscon Advance is used to relieve symptoms of acid reflux, heartburn, and indigestion. It works by forming a protective barrier that helps prevent stomach acid from rising into the oesophagus.

Gaviscon Advance creates a thick raft-like layer that floats on top of stomach contents to reduce reflux. In addition, it helps neutralise excess acid to ease burning discomfort.

Yes, it is commonly taken after meals and at bedtime when reflux symptoms are more likely to occur. Taking it as directed helps maximise its protective effect.

Gaviscon Advance is often recommended for heartburn during pregnancy due to its localised action in the stomach. However, pregnant individuals should consult a healthcare professional before use.

Many people experience relief within minutes of taking Gaviscon Advance. The protective barrier forms rapidly to soothe irritation and reduce further acid exposure.
