Gaviscon Double Action Mint Flavour Chewable Tablets, 48 Tablets

Gaviscon Double Action is my absolute go-to for heartburn and indigestion — it works so quickly and really does the trick. The mint flavour is pleasant and not too strong, and the chewable tablets are so easy to take — no water needed, which is brilliant. They start working in minutes and the relief lasts. The 48-pack is great value too, so I always have plenty on hand. I honestly couldn’t be without these — highly recommend for anyone who suffers with heartburn or acid reflux!

Very good and effective

Fast delivery and reasonable price

Couldn’t do without these while pregnant and would recommend - it’s all I’ve needed with reflux. These chewable tablets taste nice (if you like minty / toothpaste flavours!) and provide fast relief. I do find however they get stuck in your teeth a lot. This product was delivered quickly. I prefer the small gaviscon liquid sachets but they’re more expensive. Heartburn in pregnancy is very common and is both hormonally influenced - relaxing of the lower oesophageal sphincter and due to physical pressure from growing baby causing acid reflux. I find eating regular meals reduces it.

Whilst I'm at home I would tend to use Peptec, a liquid indigestion remedy similar to Gaviscon advanced, but cheaper. But these small tablets are so very easy to carry around with you and area also so very effective, quickly...! If you do suffer from acid reflux or indigestion long term then it is best seeing your doctor. I did and saw a Gastroenterologist who did various tests, with scans, cameras and probes monitors fitted in the larynx and oesophagus. For me the diagnosis left is "functional reflux". The point that I'm making is make sure that you get checked out if you need these things long term :) I do love the size of these , discreet enough like a Rennie but without the chalkie taste whilst sucking them. In my opinion suck rather than chew as the calming effect seems to last longer. As each of these tablets contain Sodium Alginate that helps to provide a protective barrier on top of the meal you have just eaten, which in turn helps to protect against reflux. That means they are best used when upright to stop the stomach contents from rising through the LOS - lower oesophagus sphincter. Peptac also contains Sodium Alginate, like Gaviscon Advanced, but is much cheaper than Gaviscon. The aniseed flavour is very palatable. Not sure why they make mint flavour aids for people with reflux, mint not being good for reflux. So overall I'm very impressed with these tablets and their effectiveness. I have found that there is no one single solution if you have reflux ongoing. Dietary and lifestyle changes, sleeping on a "wedge" (bought from Amazon), sleeping on your left side, addressing anxiety etc all can contribute to helping. But these tablets for me are most useful and I do recommend them. Also I have found great benefit from using probiotics to improve my gut health, that has improved my reflux a lot. Delivery and packaging was fine, no issues there. I hope that this review has helped you, best wishes with your reflux / indigestion issues.
