Summary. Gastroesophageal reflux disease is one of the most frequent pathologies in the structure of acid-dependent diseases of the digestive system in different trimesters of pregnancy. A significant decrease in the quality of life of pregnant women, prolonged drug treatment, which leads to various adverse reactions, cause the urgency of this problem. In this regard, for symptomatic treatment of heartburn in pregnant women, the rational choice is Gaviscon® Forte, which contains sodium alginate, which has an adsorbent and enveloping effect. The lack of systemic action and a favorable safety profile allow the use the Gaviscon® Forte in pregnant and lactating women.
