usage
Rolaids are mainly used to stop the feeling of indigestion which is also known as heartburn (Rolaids, 2015). The calcium carbonate compound in Rolaids makes it rich in calcium, for this reason Rolaids are also used by many people as calcium supplements (Medlineplus, 2015). Rolaids are orally ingested either in the form of tablets, soft-chews or a liquid solution. Rolaids are part of a category of drugs known to be antacids, and they work by neutralizing the acidity of stomach acids (hydrochloric acid) produced by the stomach.
