Overview

Sodium bicarbonate (also known as sodium hydrogen carbonate, NaHCO₃) is a small molecule inorganic salt composed of sodium and bicarbonate ions. It is widely used as a mild antacid, buffering agent, and food additive. In clinical settings, it is used to treat acidosis and other conditions requiring alkalization of body fluids. It is not itself a protein, nucleic acid, or classical therapeutic target, but it is a substrate for various sodium/bicarbonate cotransporters in physiology[1][2][4][6][7].
