Yes, antacids can be administered through tube feeding, but it is important to consult with a healthcare professional before doing so. Some antacids may alter the pH of the stomach, which can affect the absorption of certain medications or nutrients. Additionally, the formulation of the antacid should be compatible with tube feeding to avoid clogging the feeding tube. Always follow medical advice for specific patient needs and conditions.
Antacids react with bases and neutralize each other to form a neutral.
Antacids neutralize the effect of Hcl in our body if it is in excess so if the acid is getting too corrosive andis damaging the digestive system then antacids help clear it.
Do not give any human drugs, medicines, vitamins, etc., to a dog without the express instruction of a veterinarian. Antacids suppress the formation of acid in the stomach, which can predispose the dog to stomach and intestinal infections. Also, dogs rarely have problems with over-production of acids, so this will rarely have any benefit for the dog. Finally, antacids available to humans are dosed out for human needs - the doses for dogs are often very different.
