ABSTRACT:
Acidity is a medical condition caused by an excess of acid production. This acid is produced by the stomach glands. Acidity causes symptoms such as stomach ulcers, gastric inflammation, heartburn, and dyspepsia. Acidity is a global issue caused by an imbalance between the acid-secreting mechanisms of the stomach and the proximal intestine. It causes a lot of problems in the lives of many people. An antacid reduces acidity and provides relief. This review article discusses different polyherbal formulations (PHF) used to treat gastric acidity. Due to its role in medicine and therapy, PHF has been used all over the world. The current study discusses a variety of commercial and non-commercial polyherbal formulations used worldwide to treat gastric acidity, as well as their therapeutic potential, clinical and preclinical outcomes, and safety and efficacy. This review will make it easier to learn everything about the previous scientific research as well as the crucial details about the antacid properties of polyherbal preparations, which will encourage young researchers to conduct additional studies in the future to protect people from gastric acidity. Natural herbs and their extracts are used in herbal treatment as an alternative to conventional medication to treat various conditions. It has been demonstrated that several medications contain medicinal components useful for treating ulcers or stomach acidity. The subject of the current work is the claim that a polyherbal formulation can be utilised as an alternative to currently available antacid formulations on the market. As a result, those plants that can reduce stomach acid are chosen, and a formulation is created.
