| Antacids | contain elements calcium and magnesium to raise the stomach's PH (0: Acid 7:neutral 14: Alkaline or basic) |
| Histamine2 Receptor Antagonists (HsRAs) | receptor blocker for histamine2 receptor. histamine causes the formation of acid, so blocking its receptors reduces production of acid. used in treatment of dyspepsia (indigestion) |

| AD - Anti Diarrheal | bismuth subsalicylate (Pepto-Bismol), loperamide (Immodium) |
| Proton Pump Inhibitors (PPIs) | main action is a pronounced and long lasting reduction of gastric acid production. |

| -prazole suffix | PPIs |
| antidiarrheals | used to treat temporary discomforts of the stomach and gastrointestinal tract, such as diarrhea, indegestion, heartburn, and nausea |
