Gaviscon Advanced Chewable Mini Foamtabs

Gaviscon is a well-known brand of antacid and alginate used to relieve heartburn and indigestion. The brand was originally developed in the United Kingdom by Dr. Peter Robinson and manufactured by Reckitt Benckiser (now known as Reckitt). The product shown, Gaviscon Advanced, utilizes a unique foaming barrier technology to prevent stomach acid from entering the esophagus.

While the brand originated in the UK, its ownership and distribution are segmented globally. In Canada and various other markets, the brand is owned and managed by Reckitt. However, in the United States, the brand rights for Gaviscon are owned by Haleon (formerly part of GlaxoSmithKline). Manufacturing occurs in several global locations, including major facilities in Hull, United Kingdom, and various sites in North America, depending on the specific regional formulation.
