Aluminum hydroxide, magnesium carbonate, sodium alginate

Mr. Mason: 'Doctor, the antacids have been working well enough, but don't you think I need something a little stronger?' 

Dr. Demetriou: 'I agree Mr. Mason, (turning to you), how about you re-consider your choice? Combining an antacid with an alginate simply will not suffice. Remember that Mr. Mason will need H. pylori eradication therapy' 

  • If you use antacids, it is better to take them at least two hours apart of taking any other medication
