What is Gaviscon OriginalAniseed Relief and what is it used for?
Gaviscon OriginalAniseed Relief belongs to a group of medicines called ‘reflux suppressants’, which form a protective layer on top of the stomach contents to prevent stomach acid escaping from the stomach where it works into the food pipe causing pain and discomfort. Gaviscon OriginalAniseed Relief is used for the treatment of symptoms of gastro-oesophageal reflux such as acid regurgitation, heartburn and indigestion, which may occur, for example, following meals or during pregnancy. Before using Gaviscon OriginalAniseed Relief Do not take this product if:
- You know you are allergic to any of the ingredients as very rarely difficulty in breathing and skin rashes have occurred (see further information for a full list of ingredients). Take special care before treatment with Gaviscon OriginalAniseed Relief:
This medicine contains 142.6 mg sodium (main component of cooking/table salt) in each 10 ml. This is equivalent to 7.1 % of the recommended maximum daily dietary intake of sodium for an adult. If you have been advised to follow a low sodium (salt) diet ask your doctor before taking this product. The maximum recommended daily dose of this medicinal product contains 1140.8 mg sodium (found in table salt). This is equivalent to 57 % of the adult recommended maximum daily dietary intake for sodium. Talk to your doctor or pharmacist if you need this product on a daily basis for a prolonged period, especially if you have been advised to follow a low salt (sodium) diet. This product contains methyl (E218) and propyl (E216) parahydroxybenzoates which may cause
allergic reactions (possibly delayed). This medicine
contains 1.1 mg benzyl alcohol in each 10 ml.
Benzyl alcohol may cause allergic reactions.
Ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice if you are
pregnant or breast-feeding. This is because large
amounts of benzyl alcohol can build-up in your
body and may cause side effects (called “metabolic
acidosis”).
