Description

Gaviscon Liquid 120 ml contains Sodium Alginate + Sodium Bicarbonate + Calcium Carbonate and is made by Reckitt Benckiser. Sodium alginate reacts with stomach acid to form a protective gel raft that floats on the stomach contents, stopping acid from rising into the food pipe. Bicarbonate neutralises acid for quick relief. You can order it online from Divine Medicines with home delivery across Lahore.
