[Evaluation of antacids "in vitro"]. / Evaluación de antiácidos "in vitro".

Five different antacids were compared "in vitro" through titration with NaOH 0.5 N to observe their neutralising power towards HCl 1.0 N. Eight pH measurements were done for each antacid. The neutralising capacity of the antacid was calculated with a specific formula for each pH measure reading, with this information statistical calculation were made to compare the antacids among themselves, with suggest that the method can be useful in the valuation of newly produced antacid before their clinical application.
