Alka-Seltzer Heartburn Relief Chemical Information

sodium citrate - The sodium salt form of citrate with alkalinizing property. Upon absorption, sodium citrate dissociate and causes increased plasma bicarbonate concentration, thereby buffer excess H+, raise blood pH and reverse the clinical manifestations of acidosis. Furthermore, increased free sodium load could foster intravascular blood volume, and facilitate excretion of bicarbonate compounds and result in anti-urolithic effect.

sodium bicarbonate - The monosodium salt of carbonic acid with alkalinizing and electrolyte replacement properties. Upon dissociation, sodium bicarbonate forms sodium and bicarbonate ions. Ion formation increases plasma bicarbonate and buffers excess hydrogen ion concentration, resulting in raised blood pH.
