Rolaids contain calcium and magnesium. Both of these help to neutralize acid released in the stomach. They do not prevent new acid from being released.
Rolaids are an over the counter antacid that works by neutralizing acids in the stomach. Some symptoms that Rolaids treat are heartburn, sour stomach, and indigestion.
Antacids are used to neutralize stomach acidity. You take antacids (such as Tums or Rolaids) when you experience heartburn or upset stomach.
The main ingredients in Rolaids are calcium carbonate and magnesium hydroxide. Either one of them can help neutralize excess acid in the stomach. When the acid goes back up the esophagus, it can result in heartburn.
I suppose it depends on how bad it hurts. You could take Tums or Rolaids. You could also try rubbing your stomach. Hope this helped.
Base neutralizes acid. So, for stomach acid, baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) or antacids (such as Rolaids or Tums) which are made up of calcium carbonate, these base compounds neutralize acid.
