Gaviscon

So ladies, how much is too much??

At 35+2 I don't think I could have survived this far without this wonderful elixir. I've been living on the stuff, from the start really, but recently have been going through a 600ml bottle in a week! Surely that is too much?
Would love some opinions. I hoping that I'm
not the only one around with such an expensive habit!!
Happy Easter everyone.

You can get it on prescription, should make things a bit cheaper for you

I'm on the Gaviscon tablets. I think I must have had 6 at least yesterday. I worry!

Doesn't it stop us absorbing iron or something like that!?

I asked GP the other week was it okay to drink 'substantial' quantities. He laughed and said it was but gave me omeprazole. TBH I only ever took one - I was on an antibiotic that was killing my stomach and when I changed to diff AB the heartburn went away. But the point is I think a bottle in a week is fine :)

I am consuming the same amount on a weekly basis although I do have it on repeat prescription to ease the cost!

My local Boots store order it direct with my doctors surgery & have it waiting for me to collect every week!

Only one a week? Wow, I abandoned the measuring cup and started drinking it out of the bottle cos it was quicker, I was two bottles a week, and they just kept filling the scripts (I could barely get them turned round in time!) And no-one stopped me!
