How Does Dual
Action Work

Gaviscon Dual Action works in two different ways to effectively relieve the symptoms of heartburn and indigestion:

The antacid – the antacid in Gaviscon Dual Action neutralises excess stomach acid to relieve the pain and discomfort of indigestion.
The raft – the sodium alginate in Gaviscon Dual Action forms a thick layer (think of it like a ‘raft’) on top of your stomach contents. The ‘raft’ then acts as a physical barrier that helps keep your stomach contents where they belong – in your stomach – and not in your food pipe where they can cause discomfort and burning pain.

Gaviscon Dual Action is available in a variety of different products:
