جافيسكون أدفانس 10 مل ساشيه
Gaviscon Advance 10 ml sachets is a liquid anti-reflux medication designed to relieve symptoms of heartburn, acidity, and indigestion associated with acid reflux and the regurgitation of stomach contents into the esophagus. Each 10 ml sachet contains 1000 mg Sodium Alginate and 200 mg Potassium Hydrogen Carbonate. Gaviscon Advance acts locally in the stomach: upon contact with gastric contents, its ingredients react to form a protective gel barrier (raft) that floats on top of the stomach contents, helping to prevent acid reflux into the esophagus and reducing reflux-related symptoms.
