A member asked:
What is the definition or description of: antacids allergy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Mostly non-existent: Anti-acids are composed of calcium carbonate. It is not possible to become allergic to this or any mineral. Rarely, someone may react to a coloring agent, a starch of plant origin or a preservative which has been added.
