Let’s be honest these two are the real heros of Christmas week. They’ve been doing some heavy lifting over the last 24 hours

  3. Drink milk if you have heartburn, counteract the acidity with the alkalinity of milk. Happy chuggin.

    Also meat and cola are pretty acidic.

  6. Never buy them to be honest; I use Milk Thistle tablets find much better and far cheaper.

  7. Do they help if the floor’s gone all spinny and you think you’re going to be sick?

    Asking for a friend

  8. Spearmint Rennies are the best. Peppermint ones taste rank. But nothing tastes as bad as Gaviscon. Truly terrible flavour

  12. Nexium is my go to.

    Also throw in some cold and flu liquid of some kind too.

  14. the proper game changer is “food grade baking soda” tastes rank but much better priced and more widely available

  15. I use both of these too! Normally I go with Gaviscon liquid and Rennie tablets, but I switched it round this time.

    The real MVPs.

  16. Never taken either of them. Seems like a whole lotta people got little bitches for digestive systems.

  17. I needed these last year and they didn’t help much. Turns out I have coeliac, diagnosed in the summer. No issues this Christmas! There may be something underlying, could be worth getting it investigated.

  18. Is the mixed berries flavour bearable? I bought the aniseed one not knowing there were different flavours and it’s like putting sewerage into your mouth.

  20. Never had any of that

    Try going on a diet and get a gym routine

    You will be dead before 60

  22. I’m on famotidine instead, which is great for me! With a back up of gaviscon as/when needed!

  23. We have Gaviscon in suckable tablet form. Yum yum.

    But the other day, for reasons I dare not try to fathom, my wife left the Gaviscon tablets, in their see-through packaging, out on the kitchen worktop, next to a pack of lithium CR2032 batteries, in their equally see-through packing. If you don’t know, they are basically the same diameter.

    At 3:40am, when I staggered down to the kitchen, half asleep and still as full as fuck, I damn nearly took me a dose of 2 No. CR2032s.

    I’m left pondering the possibility she did it on purpose….

  24. I ran out of Gaviscon in the middle of the night and Lanzoprazole wasn’t cutting it.

    Dr Google suggested a tablespoon of apple cider vinegar so, in so much pain I was going mad, I tried it. It WORKED!

    So if you run out of either, give it a go!
