Duosis-DS Tablet works primarily by providing a source of bicarbonate ions to the body. It neutralizes the acidity in the stomach, providing relief from the discomfort of acid reflux or heartburn. It can help temporarily increase the pH of the blood, making it less acidic. This property can be useful in certain medical situations such as metabolic acidosis, where the body becomes too acidic due to conditions like kidney dysfunction or severe dehydration.
