Gaviscon Advance Chewable Mint is a medication used to treat symptoms of heartburn, acid reflux, and indigestion. It is a chewable tablet that provides fast, soothing, and long-lasting relief from the pain and discomfort caused by these conditions.

The active ingredients in Gaviscon Advance Chewable Mint include sodium alginate and potassium bicarbonate. Aluminum and magnesium antacids work quickly to lower the acid in the stomach.

Gaviscon Advance Chewable Mint comes in the form of a chewable tablet to take it orally by mouth, usually after meals and at bedtime as needed. You should chew 2 to 4 tablets after meals and at bedtime as needed, up to a maximum of 4 times per day. The tablets should be chewed thoroughly before swallowing.

If your acid problems last or get worse after you have used this product for 1 week, or if you think you have a serious medical problem, get medical help right away. If you are using this medication regularly daily for over 2 weeks, you may have a medical problem that needs different treatment. Ask your doctor whether this is the right medication for you.

Adults and children 12 years and over can take one to two tablets after meals and at bedtime, while children under 12 years should only take it under medical advice. It should only be taken on medical advice. If you forget a dose it is not necessary to double the dose next time, just carry on taking it as before.
