I prefer the aniseed in the bottle but it's too expensive to ship. I think it works better and tastes better. Trying the pills. Hard to chew so I melt them in water and drink it (so it's like the liquid form). Wish they had another flavour though. It does helps GERD/LPRand the ingredients are pretty inert, which is good because I'm probably on this for the long haul.

My gastroenterologist put me onto Gaviscon Advance, as a non-pharmaceutical alternative to ranitidine (Zantac). Protein pump inhibitors should not be used daily for years on end, and those of us with difficult cases of GERD and reflux are often prescribed just such dosages. My doc is a tad more enlightened and recommended alternating weeks between ranitidine and Gaviscon Advance. The Advance works about as well, provided I avoid doing stupid things like eating pizza at night. Regrettably, our wonderful FDA allows the sale of foods that contain garbage like BGH, traces of human birth control hormones, and pesticides .... but prevents the legal importation and distribution of Gaviscon Avance. Seems it has not been tested for the obligatory hundred years required by the FDA. Buy it, import it yourself from the UK -- this stuff works and has zero pharmaceutical-type side effects.Read full review

I have been using this to alleviate my night time GERD for the past 2 years. Since using this, I have had no issues. This is a great product at a very reasonable price. The only complaint is that it sticks to your teeth if chewing it. I have found that if you break it up first with your teeth, then slowly suck on it, it is more palatable. I only use one tablet a night so one bottle lasts 2 months,. A great buy and it works better than any prescription med.

I suffer from Laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR), which can allow stomach acids to bypass the lower esophageal sphincter and irritate the throat and voice box. Regular antacids, even regular Gaviscon manufactured and sold in the U.S., were not effective, at least for me. However, Gaviscon Advance, which I buy from pharmacies in the United Kingdom, has a different formula and is highly effective at treating my symptoms. If I start noticing symptoms, I chew two Gaviscon Advance tablets after each meal. The first time, it took 3 or 4 weeks of daily use for my symptoms to disappear. Now, if I notice them returning, I use 2 tablets after each meal for 2 or 3 days and the symptoms are gone for weeks, and sometimes months. I don't know how effective Gaviscon Advance is in treating regular reflux disease (GERD), but it is tremendously effective at controlling my LPR.Read full review

This is the ONLY Gaviscon I will ever use. I had a sore throat due to Gastritis that was caused by eating a diet high in acid. This form of Gaviscon forms a coating in the stomach that keeps the stomach acid from refluxing back into the esophagus. It's a life saver!
