Dr. Mohammed Younus answered

Antacids: Acidity is neutralized by antacids, there are several kinds; short acting and long acting, prescription and over the counter. It is best to get evaluated first especially if acidity is severe as it could be due to ulcers in the gut and treatment is very different. Ask your son to see a doc.
