What to know before buying
Listing details to confirm
The listing is contradictory about product form: the title and contents describe capsules, while flavour and safety text refer to gastro-resistant tablets. It also gives conflicting dimensions and weight entries across details. Confirm the selected pack's form and specifications, and use its package leaflet. Directions say not to crush or chew, and not to exceed the 14-day course without consulting a doctor. The listing advises consulting a pharmacist or doctor about listed interacting medicines and new or recently changed reflux symptoms if over 55.
