What is Gaviscon ES Icy Mint?
Product Overview
Gaviscon ES Icy Mint is an antacid medication formulated to provide relief from heartburn and acid reflux. It is designed to offer extra-strength relief. The "ES" in Gaviscon ES stands for Extra Strength. It contains a combination of active ingredients that work together to neutralize stomach acid and provide a protective barrier against acid reflux.
Key Ingredients and Their Benefits
Active Ingredients Explained
Gaviscon ES Icy Mint contains three active ingredients: Sodium Alginate, Sodium Bicarbonate, and Calcium Carbonate. Sodium Alginate forms a raft-like barrier on top of the stomach contents, helping to prevent acid from rising into the esophagus. Sodium Bicarbonate acts as an antacid, neutralizing stomach acid to provide quick relief from burning sensations. Calcium Carbonate also acts as an antacid, further helping to reduce stomach acidity. These ingredients work together to provide comprehensive relief from heartburn symptoms.
