Antacids L. Scheffler 1

Digestion Digestion involves the break down of foods, particularly carbohydrates, lipids, and proteins into forms that can be metabolized in the cells Amylase found in saliva begins the breakdown of starches The breakdown of proteins occurs primarily in the stomach through the action of of the enzyme pepsin and Hydrochloric acid 2

The Stomach The walls of the stomach are lined with cells that secrete mucus, pepsinogen and hydrochloric acid. 3

The Stomach The hydrochloric acid concentration of the stomach ranges from 0.03 M to 0.003 M which corresponds to a pH range of about 1.5 to 2.5 4

The Stomach The mucus lining of the stomach protects the stomach walls from the action of stomach acid 5

Acid Indigestion and “Heartburn” When excess acid is produced a condition known as acid indigestion results. If excess acid is forced into the esophagus acid reflux or “heart burn” results. High acid concentrations can damage the stomach lining resulting in ulcers. 6

Causes of Acid Indigestion Excess stomach acid results in a state of discomfort known as acid indigestion Acid indigestion may result form a variety of factors including: Overeating Alcohol consumption Eating certain foods Anxiety Smoking Certain Drugs, i.e. Aspirin 7

Antacid Compounds Antacids are weak bases that are used to neutralize excess stomach acid Most antacids are weak inorganic bases Common examples include CaCO3 NaHCO3 Al(OH)3 Mg(OH)2 MgO and Mg(OH)2 (Milk of Magnesia) 8

Antacid Reactions Antacids react with HCl in the stomach Some common antacid reactions include: CaCO3 + 2 HCl  CaCl2 + H2O + CO2 NaHCO3 + HCl  NaCl + H2O + CO2 Al(OH)3 + 3 HCl  AlCl3 + 3 H2O Mg(OH)2 + 2 HCl  MgCl2 + 2 H2O MgO + 2 HCl  MgCl2 + H2O 9

Effect of Antacids In addition to neutralizing excess stomach acid they may be helpful in preventing inflammation, relieving pain and discomfort, and allowing the mucus layer in the stomach lining to heal. They are often used to treat ulcers by preventing the stomach acids from attacking the stomach lining allowing it to heal. Mucus Lining 10

Antacid Side Effects Antacids are relatively harmless but they can have minor contraindications Magnesium Compounds may cause diarrhea Aluminum Compounds may cause constipation and they also may interfere with the adsorption of phosphates in the formation of bones. This is more likely to be true if they are taken for an extended period of time Carbonates may generate carbon dioxide leading to bloating and flatulence. 11

Alginates and Antifoaming Agents Antacids are often combined with alginates and anti-foaming agents. Aliginates float on the stomach contents to form a neutralizing layer preventing reflux of stomach acids up into the esophagus. Hence they help to prevent acid reflux or heart burn. Anti-foaming agents such as simethicone (dimethicone) prevent the formation of gases and reduce flatulence. 12

H2 Blockers H2 blockers impede acid production in the stomach by blocking the actions of histamine, a substance produced by the body that encourages acid secretion in the stomach. These drugs cannot cure ulcers, but in certain cases they are useful. They are effective only for duodenal ulcers, however, and have little effect on stomach (gastric) ulcers. 13

H2 Blockers Four H2 blockers are currently available over the counter in the US: Famotidine (Pepcid AC) Cimetidine (Tagamet) Ranitidine (Zantac) Nizatidine (Axid). 14

Structures of common H2 Blockers Note the similarities in structure of these H2 blockers 15

Proton Pump Inhibitors Proton Pump Inhibitors reduce the production of acid by blocking the enzyme in the wall of the stomach that produces acid. Inhibitors do not neutralize excess acid but inhibit the initial production of hydrochloric acid The reduction of acid prevents ulcers and allows any ulcers that exist in the esophagus, stomach and duodenum to heal. 16

Proton Pump Inhibitors Proton Pump Inhibitors are generally available only by prescription but low doses of some products are now approved for over the counter use Commonly prescribed Proton Pump inhibitors include Rabeprazole (Aciphex) Lansoprazole (Prevacid) Omeprazole (Prilosec) Esomeprazole (Nexium) 17

Proton Pump Inhibitors Rabeprazole (Aciphex) Lansoprazole (Prevacid) 18

Proton Pump Inhibitors Omeprazole (Prilosec) This is a racemic mixture Esomeprazole (Nexium, Same structure as Omeprazole but only the S isomer 19
