    PPIs are ok for short term use.  However, in the long term, they may cause problems.  However, everyone reacts differently to medication.  I don't know what calories are in Gaviscon, but I take them frequently, and I am still as slim as ever.

      I don't know the answer to that because I don't count calories in food or medicines.  I don't put on weight so I have no need to check this.  Even when dieted in my teens, I simply cut out fatty and fried foods without calorie counting.
