Gaviscon Regular Strength Liquid Icy Mint, 340 mL

Gaviscon Regular Strength Liquid Icy Mint

Gaviscon Regular Strength Liquid Icy Mint is a trusted antacid suspension designed to provide fast and soothing relief from heartburn, acid reflux, and indigestion.

This liquid formulation works differently from standard antacids by forming a protective layer that sits on top of stomach contents, helping prevent acid from rising into the esophagus.

Its icy mint flavor offers a refreshing experience, making it easier to take when symptoms strike.
