Gaviscon Syrup Uses

Gaviscon syrup is an antacid used for the treatment of heartburn, acid reflux, and indigestion. The syrup is a reflux suppressant that works by preventing acid from flowing back up into the esophagus by forming a protective foam barrier at the top of the stomach contents. This foam barrier prevents acid reflux and protects the esophagus from inflammation and damage caused by stomach acid. By neutralizing stomach acid, Gaviscon syrup can provide relief from the symptoms of gastroesophageal reflux, and associated pain and discomfort in the esophagus.
