Thank You Amazon for having my Gaviscon tablets, regular strength...for some reason, and i wish i knew what that reason was, the stores in my area do Not carry the Gaviscon regular strength tablets anymore....only the Extra Strength which do NOT contain the same ingredients, and do NOT
work on my reflux problem.....This version of Gaviscon has the aluminum hydroxide and the magnesium trisilicate which is the only thing that really works to make a barrier stopping the acid from coming up to the esophagus from the stomach....a wonderful product that has saved me alot of pain and discomfort with acid reflux.....

I don't know why but it is almost impossible to find in stores anything but the "extra-strength." But the extra-strength is an entirely different formulation and, for me, does not work at all while this regular strength is a lifesaver.

Gavicon is the only antiacid that works when you lie down. I like the regular better than the extra strength. less antiacid and more inert protection that floats on the top of the stomach. I've used it for over twenty years and dispite serious reflux I have no damage.

I don't know why it's so difficult to find this in local stores, but it's the best thing I've found to treat acid reflux. It works instantly, and creates a barrier at the entrance to your esophagus. Recommended.
