What are TUMS and how do they work?
TUMS is an antacid used to relieve heartburn, sour stomach, acid indigestion, and upset stomach associated with these symptoms. TUMS starts to neutralize the heartburn-causing acid in your stomach on contact which provides fast relief for your tough heartburn. Many other heartburn medications are absorbed into the bloodstream and can take hours or day to fully work. TUMS, with active ingredient Calcium Carbonate, travels directly to the source of the heartburn.

If you experience heartburn during pregnancy, there are treatments your doctor can prescribe or recommend. TUMS is effective for occasional heartburn and TUMS is the #1 OB/GYN recommended brand of antacid.*
The maximum daily dosage for Extra Strength is 6 tablets in 24 hours and for Ultra Strength is 5 tablets in 24 hours. Ask your doctor if TUMS and other options are appropriate for you.
