Most side effects of Gaviscon Double Action Mint are mild and settle as the body gets used to the medicine. The ones reported most often are:
Stop the medicine and get help at once for a rash, swelling of the face or lips, wheezing or difficulty breathing. Tell your doctor about any side effect that persists or worries you.
Shake well before use. Take after meals and at bedtime as directed on the label or by a doctor. Measure with a dosing cup/spoon; can be taken with or without water.
Sodium alginate reacts with gastric acid to form a viscous gel "raft" that floats on stomach contents and reduces reflux into the esophagus. Calcium carbonate and sodium bicarbonate neutralize excess acid and provide symptomatic relief.
Use with caution if on a sodium-restricted diet, kidney disease, or hypercalcemia. Do not exceed recommended dose. If symptoms persist beyond 7-14 days, consult a doctor. Keep gap from other oral medicines to avoid reduced absorption.
Take it as soon as you remember. If your next dose is almost due, skip the one you missed — never take two doses together to catch up.
An overdose of this medicine can cause severe loose motions or constipation and disturb the body's salt balance. It can raise blood calcium dangerously, causing thirst, frequent urination, vomiting, confusion and kidney damage. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.
May reduce absorption of tetracyclines, fluoroquinolones, iron salts, levothyroxine, bisphosphonates; separate by at least 2 hours (or as advised).
