Antacids are the substances or supplements that neutralizes the burning effect or acidity in stomach.
Mild base components are used as antacids.
Milk of magnesia or Magnesium hydroxide is its perfect example.
It reduces the pain and acidity level which is caused due to maximum secretion of HCl in stomach.
