Gaviscon is one of the more established names in over-the-counter digestive relief, commonly used for heartburn, acid reflux and the heavy, overfull feeling of indigestion after a big meal. It works differently from a plain antacid: its alginate forms a protective barrier on top of the stomach contents that helps stop acid rising into the food pipe. The range includes Double Action and Advance formulations and liquid suspensions, chewable tablets and single-dose sachets along with Gaviscon Infant for use under medical guidance. You'll find the authentic Gaviscon line at myAster, a licensed UAE online pharmacy with express delivery.
Both Gaviscon Advance and Gaviscon Double Action help relieve heartburn, acid reflux, and indigestion, but they work slightly differently.
Gaviscon Advance contains a higher concentration of sodium alginate, which forms a stronger, longer-lasting protective barrier over the stomach contents. It is often preferred for persistent reflux, especially if symptoms are worse at night or when lying down.
Gaviscon Double Action combines this protective barrier with antacids that help neutralize excess stomach acid. This makes it a good choice for heartburn and acid indigestion, particularly after heavy or spicy meals.
In general, if reflux is your main concern, Gaviscon Advance may be the better option. If you experience both heartburn and acid indigestion, Gaviscon Double Action is often more suitable.
The best Gaviscon format depends on your preference and lifestyle. Gaviscon Liquid is often chosen for fast, effective relief and is ideal for use at home. Chewable tablets are a convenient option when you're on the go and should be chewed thoroughly before swallowing for best results. Sachets offer the same liquid formulation in a single-use, portable pack, making them easy to carry while traveling or at work. Whichever format you choose, Gaviscon is also available in a range of flavors, including mint, berry, and aniseed, so you can pick the one you prefer.
Along with using the right Gaviscon product, a few simple lifestyle changes can help reduce the frequency of heartburn and acid reflux.
