What is Gaviscon Advance Aniseed Flavoured Suspension
Gaviscon Advance 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.
Gaviscon can also be used to
relieve the symptoms of conditions
such as hiatus hernia (protrusion of
muscle through a muscle wall), reflux
oesophagitis (inflamed food pipe) and chloroquine (a medication used to
prevent malaria), bisphosphonates (a
medication used to treat osteoporosis)
and estramustine (a medication to treat
prostate cancer).
