EFFECTIVELY RELIEVING MULTIPLE SYMPTOMS OF REFLUX

Double action therapy to treat 7 symptoms

Reflux and its symptoms can be very unpleasant, but they are extremely common, with 1 in 4 adults in the UK affected by symptoms such as heartburn. 1

Although some causes of acid reflux are preventable, many people still suffer from it and they are likely to want fast-acting relief when symptoms strike. Understanding the over-the-counter (OTC) options available in the pharmacy will help you advise and support your customers.
