Gaviscon Double Action Aniseed

Gaviscon is a well-known brand of antacids and alginate-based treatments for heartburn and indigestion. The product shown, Gaviscon Double Action Aniseed liquid, is specifically formulated to provide dual relief by neutralizing excess stomach acid and forming a protective barrier (raft) over the stomach contents to prevent acid reflux.

The brand has a rich history originating in the United Kingdom, where it was first developed. Today, it is part of the extensive portfolio of Reckitt (formerly Reckitt Benckiser), a major British multinational consumer goods company. While the brand is global, a significant portion of its research and manufacturing for the European market remains centered in the UK, particularly in Hull, although production can occur in several regional hubs depending on the specific market requirements.
