Heartburn or acid reflux can significantly disrupt your daily routine and cause an uncomfortable feeling after a meal or just before bedtime. When that burning sensation behind the breastbone flares up, you look for a reliable solution that offers immediate relief. Rennie Peppermint chewable tablets support your body by quickly converting excess stomach acid into water and other natural substances, so you can comfortably continue with your day.
- Immediate relief from heartburn and acid reflux through rapid neutralisation of stomach acid.

- Safe to use during pregnancy and breastfeeding, so you can count on your health partner during these periods too.
- Fresh peppermint flavour ensures a pleasant experience while chewing or sucking the tablet.
How it works
Rennie works locally in the stomach and is not absorbed into the blood. The active ingredients, calcium carbonate and magnesium carbonate, are acid-neutralising substances that react directly with the stomach acid present. By converting these substances into water and mineral salts, the acidity in the stomach is quickly lowered, which reduces the pressure on the oesophagus and soothes the burning sensation. This makes it a reliable support for maintaining a healthy stomach environment.
