An antacid is a substance which neutralizes stomach acidity.Antacids contain alkaline ions that directly neutralize stomach gastric acid.Antacids are generally a chemical salt of an alkaline ion and a counterion, as shown in the table below. The alkaline ion is generally bicarbonate but may also be hydroxide.
