Gaviscon Infant 30 Sachets
What Are Gaviscon Infant Sachets? Gaviscon Infant is used to treat acid reflux. It contains two active ingredients; sodium alginate and magnesium alginate. Together, these form a protective layer on top of the stomach contents, preventing acid from travelling up the oesophagus (the “food tube”), which is the cause of the painful “heartburn” sensation associated with reflux. This helps to prevent vomiting in babies who are feeding. How To Use Gaviscon Infant Satchets. For infants aged 1 to 2 years.
