Most heartburn tablets use Calcium Carbonate which is slightly alkaline (basic) to neutralize stomach acid. Brands such as "Tums" and "Rolaids" use calcium carbonate.
Other heartburn tablets (such as "Pepcid") use Famatodine, which is essentially an antihistamine which helps to block the production of stomach acid.
