Antacids

When it's time for your big board meeting or presentation where feeling your best is just as important as looking your best, don't let a little tummy trouble distract you. Keep a reliable antacid on hand that's been approved by your doctor to help relieve heartburn, indigestion and upset stomach, so you can start feeling better in no time. Consider chewable antacid tablets or dissolvable antacids medicine and browse other medicines, medical supplies and diagnostic equipment and supplies.

What Is An Antacid?

Heartburn, acid indigestion and upset stomach can be caused by a surplus of acid in the stomach. Often made with calcium carbonate as the active ingredient, an antacid is a digestive aid that helps quickly minimize excess stomach acid, so you can feel better. Choose between generic antacids and name brand antacids that are recommended by your doctor.

Chew It Or Dissolve It

When it comes to over-the-counter medications, find the one that's easiest for you to ingest. Often available in tasty flavors, chewable tablets provide an easy-to-swallow option to pills that are designed to be consumed whole. If a liquid antacid is preferred, talk to your doctor about tablets that can be dissolved in water.

Carrying Convenience

If you're prone to heartburn, a reliable antacid that's easy to keep on hand can be a necessity for fast relief. Over-the-counter antacids are easy to carry in individually wrapped pill form, as the packet helps protect the medication and is less bulky than a full bottle of loose tablets or liquid. Simply slip a packet into your pocket, purse or briefcase, and you're prepared everywhere you go.
