Demerol is a weak base. I know this because it's not well absorbed in the stomach (weak bases ionize in acid). Some clients will take antacids to lower their stomach PH and abuse demerol this way.
The active ingredients in Drano are typically sodium hydroxide (lye), sodium hypochlorite (bleach), and aluminum. These chemicals work together to break down clogs in drains by dissolving organic material.
Tums does not contain aluminum. Instead, it primarily contains calcium carbonate as its active ingredient, which is used to relieve heartburn and indigestion. Some antacids, like certain formulations of Maalox or Mylanta, may contain aluminum, but Tums is not one of them. Always check the ingredient label for specific formulations if you have concerns.

Additionally, individual differences in acidity levels in the stomach may influence how well a particular antacid works for a person.
