Mylanta
Liquid heartburn relief
Mylanta is a brand of antacid used to relieve heartburn, acid indigestion, and upset stomach.
The name has become somewhat generic for over-the-counter stomach remedies: I need some Mylanta after that spicy meal.
Like other antacids, it works by neutralizing stomach acid.
