GI coverup: preventive use of antacids may mask medication's risks

Article Abstract:

Taking antacids with nonsteroidal antiinflamatory drugs (NSAIDS), as many physicians recommend, may do more harm than good. People who suffer from no NSAID-related side effects, but take antacids with NSAIDS anyway, have a greater risk of stomach-related hospitalizations than people who take NSAIDs alone.
