Very effective and great value for the money
Great help for heartburn.I dont get heartburn much but I suffer to it horribly when I'll and for the following weeks after, I struggle as my body rejects Gaviscon (the liquid) and usually brings it up the way it went down, meaning heartburn is something I had to deal with.However, I found these and got some, they really helped. they are chewable tablets, a bit like a sweet or mint, you crunch it and swallow them, I was sceptical if they would work but was shocked, they take effect within minutes and not only get rid of heartburn, they help prevent heartburn! take 2 of these before bed and I slept like a baby, I can honestly not recommend them enough to anyone who gets heartburn.Also, the taste isn't too bad, they taste quite nice whilst chewing down, the after taste has a bit so great taste but it only lasts a few seconds, I drink some water down after swallowing them to wash any residue away and this solves the issue.Great value honestly, I stock up on these now, it's nice to have some ready on the safe side.

A must have for when you overindulge
I have these to hand for those days when I overindulge. I know I shouldn't but I'm only human. If I eat cream or crisps or chocolate I get acid and I can't sleep because of the discomfort but if I take 2 Gaviscon it really helps. Yes they stick to your teeth and sometimes I've fallen asleep with one in my mouth which is not nice either, but that's nothing compared to the discomfort of acid indigestion. I always have a pack ready, just in case. We'll worth the money.

Easy to use and small enough to carry in your pocket.
Whilst I'm at home I would tend to use Peptec, a liquid indigestion remedy similar to Gaviscon advanced, but cheaper. But these small tablets are so very easy to carry around with you and area also so very effective, quickly...!If you do suffer from acid reflux or indigestion long term then it is best seeing your doctor. I did and saw a Gastroenterologist who did various tests, with scans, cameras and probes monitors fitted in the larynx and oesophagus. For me the diagnosis left is "functional reflux". The point that I'm making is make sure that you get checked out if you need these things long term :)I do love the size of these , discreet enough like a Rennie but without the chalkie taste whilst sucking them. In my opinion suck rather than chew as the calming effect seems to last longer.As each of these tablets contain Sodium Alginate that helps to provide a protective barrier on top of the meal you have just eaten, which in turn helps to protect against reflux. That means they are best used when upright to stop the stomach contents from rising through the LOS - lower oesophagus sphincter.Peptac also contains Sodium Alginate, like Gaviscon Advanced, but is much cheaper than Gaviscon. The aniseed flavour is very palatable. Not sure why they make mint flavour aids for people with reflux, mint not being good for reflux.So overall I'm very impressed with these tablets and their effectiveness. I have found that there is no one single solution if you have reflux ongoing. Dietary and lifestyle changes, sleeping on a "wedge" (bought from Amazon), sleeping on your left side, addressing anxiety etc all can contribute to helping. But these tablets for me are most useful and I do recommend them.Also I have found great benefit from using probiotics to improve my gut health, that has improved my reflux a lot.Delivery and packaging was fine, no issues there.I hope that this review has helped you, best wishes with your reflux / indigestion issues.
