This is sort of a gross question, I apologize, but in Health we are doing reports on medicine. I got anti-gas medicine. Do Tums help get rid of gas or do they contribute to it?

Tums is a anticacid so they would get rid of the gassy feeling. Rolaids also
Having this gas problem is called "flatulence." Since this is not my area of expertise, I searched Google under the key words "flatulence tums" to get these possible sources: (You could also find similar helpful sources under "farting tums.")

In the future, you can find the information you desire more quickly, if you use appropriate key words to do your own search. Also see http://hanlib.sou.edu/searchtools/.

I hope this helps. Thanks for asking.
