I didn't see that. If you check your source by reading the reviews on the page you linked to, you'll see that Medique 10133 Alcalak Sugar Free Tablets are not, in fact, sugar-free. The label on them says "May contain sucrose."
Okay, so even if Medique doesn't count, I gave three links containing cheap sugar-free antacid tablets, including two brands. I don't see how this is a market failure; the product is clearly available for a reasonable price.
