Heartburn & Indigestion Relief

Heartburn and indigestion relief products help soothe burning chest discomfort, acid reflux, bloating and upper-stomach irritation. Many people buy antacids, alginate suspensions, chewable tablets and acid-lowering medicines online for fast, convenient and effective symptom relief. The Welzo Heartburn & Indigestion Relief collection includes trusted treatments designed to neutralise stomach acid, calm irritation and restore digestive comfort.

What Is Heartburn & Indigestion?

Heartburn is a burning sensation in the chest or throat caused when stomach acid rises into the oesophagus. Indigestion (dyspepsia) describes upper abdominal discomfort, bloating, nausea and early fullness after eating. These conditions often occur after large meals, spicy foods, stress or lying down too soon after eating.

Benefits & Features of Heartburn & Indigestion Relief

• Fast symptom relief: Antacids and alginates provide rapid neutralisation of stomach acid.
• Reduces burning and regurgitation: Ideal for post-meal flare-ups or discomfort at night.
• Protects the oesophagus: Some products form a barrier to prevent acid reflux.
• Supports digestive comfort: Helps ease bloating, nausea and heaviness.
• Various formats available: Liquids, chewables, tablets and sachets.
• Pairs well with digestive support: Explore complementary ranges like Gut Health and Stomach & Bowel Relief.

Why Heartburn Treatment Matters

While occasional heartburn is common, persistent or frequent episodes can interfere with sleep, work productivity and long-term digestive health. Early treatment helps reduce discomfort and may prevent complications associated with ongoing acid exposure.

How to Use Heartburn & Indigestion Products

• Take antacids or alginates as directed, often after meals or at the onset of symptoms.
• Swallow acid-reducing tablets, such as course-based products, before food as advised.
• Avoid lying down for at least 2–3 hours after eating.
• Reduce trigger foods such as spicy meals, caffeine, chocolate and alcohol.
• Review medicines regularly if taken frequently.

FAQs – Heartburn & Indigestion Relief

What causes heartburn?

Heartburn is usually caused by acid reflux, where stomach acid flows back into the oesophagus. Triggers include spicy foods, overeating, drinking alcohol, stress and lying down too soon after meals.

How fast do heartburn products work?

Antacids and alginates often work within minutes. Acid-reducing medicines may take several hours to reach full effect.

Can I take heartburn medication every day?

Occasional use is fine, but daily symptoms should be reviewed by a clinician to rule out underlying conditions.

What foods make heartburn worse?

Common triggers include fatty foods, citrus, tomatoes, coffee, spicy meals, alcohol and chocolate.

Do alginate-based suspensions help at night?

Yes. They form a protective layer that helps reduce reflux when lying down.

Are heartburn treatments safe during pregnancy?

Some are, but always check the product information and consult a clinician before use.

Can indigestion be a sign of something serious?

Indigestion is often harmless, but persistent symptoms, weight loss, difficulty swallowing or vomiting require urgent review.

Do gut health supplements help with reflux?

They don’t replace heartburn treatment but may help support digestion when used alongside products in the Gut Health collection.

Which option is best for immediate relief?

Antacids and alginates provide the fastest relief and are ideal for sudden symptoms after meals.
