Antacids are a therapeutic class of basic compounds typically composed of calcium, magnesium, aluminum, or sodium salts designed to provide rapid, localized symptomatic relief.
They function by chemically neutralizing secreted hydrochloric acid in the stomach lumen, thereby raising gastric pH and reducing pepsin activity to protect the gastrointestinal mucosa.
Clinically, these agents are primarily indicated for the acute management of heartburn, acid indigestion, dyspepsia, and symptomatic distress associated with gastroesophageal reflux disease and peptic ulcer disease.
