I LOVE this medication. I will not go anywhere without it. I used to suffer from extreme IBS. And I tried Gaviscon chewable tablet once. Within 20 mins, I was okay! I have tried every medication, every herbal remedy in the world to cure my IBS that I had for years. And since having been using it for a few months, I don't even get IBS anymore. Thank you Gaviscon.

I was having unbearable stomach pain but after I took Gaviscon extra strength, my stomach stopped hurting immediately (10 mins).

Had chronic laryngitis due to acid reflux. Taking 15ml every night of the liquid for ten days and will continue. It has reduced significantly the hoarseness in my voice due to reflux. I keep the liquid in the fridge, it has a minty flavor and is not too hurtful.

AMAZING product BUT nasty. But once you chew ans swallow you’re done tasting it. But this stuff beats tums and all the other products. I have sever GERD and recently started pantoprazole. It helps a little but had to start using a lot of tums. But someone recommended this product and it’s a holy grail of mine. I don’t get heartburn but I get chest pains. Especially right under the right breast and this stuff does wonders!

Gaviscon is great unfortunately I cannot take it I can’t chew them due to dentures. And the liquid is gross. But if the company could consider a powder option and could take the right dose that way. I would definitely start buying again.

After chewing as directed, the starchy remnants just stick to your teeth, and ruin any eating or drinking pleasure for the next half hour. Rennie are much better and cheaper - just as effective, and don't stick to your teeth. I only got these because Rennie were out of stock.

I use this to control my stomach acid. It's great. I went to the ER and they recommended it, and I was mad at the time I went to the hospital that I was recommended OTC medicine, but it works great.

It works doctor recommended the liquid forum last year I take it every now and then when my heart burn is really bad, It sort of numbers your mouth and cools everything down. It reminds me of a much milder version of the concoction hospitals give you when you have stomach problems. I take this and I have Celiac disease and had no issues with this medication. I only need one tsp and I am fine for a couple of hours.

I'm experiencing severe acid reflux. My Doctor suggested Gaviscon to assist with my pain. I Love this product. It helps me within 3 to 4 minutes. Absolutely highly recommended.

I have acid reflux occasionally and I'd always chewed Tums or Rolaids for lack of anything better. Some years back, however, I was at a family dinner in Canada and experienced slightly more severe acid reflux than usual. My husband's ancient aunt, whom I'd never net before, mentioned that she always uses Gaviscon. I'd never heard of it and, because the name sounded vaguely French, figured I wouldn't be able to find it in America. Later, back in America, I looked for and found it. It's so much better than anything else I've ever used. I often think of that aunt and send grateful vibes to her each time! Viva Gaviscon!Read More Read Less

I used to suffer from heartburn/ reflux very often after eating an evening meal or a spicy meal such as Indian. As I love Indian style cooking this was a real nuisance. I tried Gaviscon liquid after suffering a heartburn and it stopped the heartburn and calmed my stomach. Now if I have a spicy meal or late meal I take a shot (50ml) of Gaviscon liquid before retiring for the night and I never have reflux problems, not only that but I seem to enjoy a better all round night's sleep. I'd like this opportunity to say thankyou to Gaviscon for making life so much easier, thanks.Read More Read Less

When I do get acid reflux/hearburn, it's quite painful especially in my throat. I take 1 Gavison Extra Strength Chewable tablet and it works 90% of the time within 15 minutes. If I don't have relief after about 30 minutes, I might take another 1/2 tablet. Side note: for me eating East Indian foods triggers some very serious acid reflux!
