COMPARATIVE STUDIES OF DIFFERENT COMMERCIAL ANTACIDS BY DETERMINING THE AMOUNT OF HCI THEY CAN NEUTRALIZE Authors: Khound P And saikia A*
ABSTRACT
Antacids are chemically basic in nature. It contains some bases such as Aluminium hydroxide
Al(OH)3, Magnesium hydroxide MG (OH)2, Sodium bicarbonate juice (NaHCO3) etc. More is the
basic strength of Antacids more will be the tendency of Antacids to neutralize the gastric juice (HCl
solution). Alternatively the volume of a definite strength of HCl (Gastric Juice) required to
neutralize the different Antacids are not same.
In general greater is the neutralization power of Antacids, greater will be the strength of Antacids. Publication date: 01/12/2021 https://ijbpas.com/pdf/2021/December/MS_IJBPAS_2021_DEC_SPCL_2005.pdfDownload PDFhttps://doi.org/10.31032/IJBPAS/2021/10.12.2005
