Take special care before treatment with Gaviscon Double Action Mint Flavour Chewable Tablets: This medicine contains sodium (9.72 mmol per 4 tablet dose) and calcium (7.5 mmol per 4 tablet dose). If you have been advised to follow a diet restricted in either of these please consult your doctor.

Talk to your doctor or pharmacist if you need this product on a daily basis for a prolonged period of time, especially if you have been advised to follow a low salt (sodium) diet. This medicine contains 5.6 mg aspartame in each tablet. Aspartame is a source of phenylalanine. It may be harmful if you have phenylketonuria (PKU), a rare genetic disorder in which phenylalanine builds up because the body cannot remove it properly. These tablets contain carmoisine lake (E122) which may cause allergic reactions. This product can mask symptoms of other more serious, underlying medical conditions. If symptoms persist, or treatment is required for more than seven days continuously, please speak to your doctor or pharmacist. You can take this product if you are pregnant or breast feeding.

Possible side effects: Very rarely (less than 1 in 10,000 patients treated) an allergic reaction to the ingredients may occur. Symptoms of this may include: skin rash itching, difficulty breathing, dizziness, swelling of the face, tongue or throat. If you experience these or any other side effects, stop taking the product and consult your doctor immediately.
