Which do people find the more effective; tablets or liquid? Other antacids are available of course!

Liquid.

Gaviscon advance peppermint liquid only for me.

I prefer liquid, the tablets get stuck in my teeth, but I do have tablets in my handbag, easier to carry around. With liquid you can decide how much you want, plus I find it lasts longer being in a bottle.

I've only tried the tablets and they're vile. I take Bisodol if I have acid indigestion.

I've gone for the aniseed liquid as I quite like the taste. Will try the mint next time!

There’s liquid sachets available. I carry a few in my handbag. Tablets don’t give me as good relief as liquid does, so these are a good way to carry liquid Gaviscon.

I use liquid gaviscon advance at night and tablets in day if needed.
