The panel discussion established an interesting link between renowned drug researchers in pharmacy with expertise in antacids in-vitro studies and a gastroenterologist, as they correlate learnings from basic research to clinical outcomes.

Each antacid compound has differences in physiochemical behavior and clinical pharmacology, which becomes the core area of discussion for this eminent panel.
