I am a pharmacist and I fully agree with Thomas. Gaviscon is Aluminum Hydroxide and Magnesium Carbonate. These antacids are not known to damage the liver but there are quite a few meds that interact with them so please check with a pharmacist or physician who is familiar with all the meds you are on whether you can take it. Sometimes, you can take it but just need to take the 2 meds at different times like with some antibiotics but other times like if you have kidney damage, it may be better to take a different medication to treat heartburn if that is what is causing your pain. Hope you feel better.
