Gaviscon Advance Suspensions contain double the concentration of sodium
alginate compared with Gaviscon Original products. Gaviscon Advance Suspensions
form the strongest ‘raft’ in the Gaviscon liquids range.
Gaviscon Advance forms a ‘raft’ over the stomach contents which helps prevent
acid coming back up into the oesophagus (food pipe). As such it is effective at
treating the classic symptoms of heartburn (a burning pain in the chest and mild
acid regurgitation).
