Option 1 : Antacid

The correct answer is  Antacid.

Explanation:

Antacid:

  • During indigestion, stomach produces too much acid, which causes pain and irritation. 
  • Antacids are a type of medication that is used to treat conditions caused by stomach acid.
  • Antacids, which are bases, are used to get rid of this pain.
  • The excess acid in the stomach is neutralized by these antacids.
  • Antacids contain sodium hydrogen carbonate as an ingredient.
  • Because it is alkaline, it neutralises excess stomach acid and provides relief.

Analgesic:

  • Analgesics are drugs that act on the nervous system. These have an impact on the mechanism of message transfer from nerve to receptor.
  • Analgesics relieve or eliminate pain without impairing consciousness, causing mental confusion, incoordination, or paralysis, or causing other nervous system disturbances.

Antiseptic:

  • Antiseptics are chemicals that either kill or prevent microorganisms from growing.
  • Antiseptics are substances that are applied to living tissues such as wounds, ulcers, cuts, and diseased skin surfaces.

Antibiotic:

  • Because of their low toxicity in humans and animals, antibiotics are used as drugs to treat infections.
  • Antibiotics were initially defined as chemical substances produced by microorganisms (bacteria, fungi, and moulds) that inhibit or even destroy the growth of microorganisms.
