Solution

The correct option is C
Antacid

Acidity is caused due to the excess production of acids in the stomach.

  • An antacid tablet contains bases, such as milk of magnesia(magnesium hydroxide, gelusil,etc.

  • These bases react with excess of acids and neutralize the effect of excessive acid and bring relief.
