title: [in vitro comparison of liquid antacids of commercial use].
abstract: The aim of our study was to compare the capacity of several liquid antacids to elevate the pH of a hydrochloric acid solution. An experimental model was designed to measure this capacity in different commercially available liquid antacids. Change in pH of an HCl solution was registered when each of the liquid antacids was added. We found differences between the 4 MgOH - ALOH antacids. Minimal difference was found between the 2 commercially available magaldrates.
