Pepto Bismol Original Chewables 30 Tablets

Pros: sugar free, low sodium, easy to take for children
Cons: hard to remove from plastic packaging, contains saccharin & red dye

The first week of June my nine year old son became sick with a virus going around. He spent a weekend vomiting at all hours of the day and night. The other times he visited the bathroom it was with diarrhea. It got to the point where he slept with ...

Pros: Portable, easy to use and take, works fairly quickly, sugar free, expiration date on box.
Cons: Dry, the taste, often need more than one dose.

Pretty much ever since I had gastric bypass surgery last year, my pouch (AKA what's left of my stomach) has been having fits. I go thru more Pe pto-Bismol Original Formula Liquid than I care to think about. The problem ...

Pros: Taste GREAT, easy to open, and works fast!
Cons: 12 and under have to ask a doctor before use.

When it comes to me and taking medicine, I do not like to drink liquid medicine. I just can not stand the taste of most liquid medicine's so when I came across the chewable Pepto-Bismol, I had to buy it and give it a try. I have never used Pepto-Bismol ...

Pros: Can use for combination of sickness, good for the placebo effect, not bad tasting
Cons: Made to do too much!

So you just got food poisoning from eating the day old meat at Western Sizzlin, eh? Well you probably should rush yourself to your local hospital and let your insurance work for you. But if you just have some slight stomach problems from Taco Bell's...

Pros: Easy to digest, portable, travel well, works
Cons: Don't work quite as fast as the liquid form

As a child, my mom always had a bottle of Pepto-Bismol in the medicine cabinet. And for good reason... it worked for symptoms such as indigestion, diarrhea, heartburn, or a stomach ache from overindulging. As an adult, I still use the pink stuff,...

Pros: It works on mild discomfort. No after effects. Easy and non-habit forming.
Cons: Taste is awful to me. Sometimes doesn't work fast enough.

The pink works. I'm not sure why it works as well as it does, and quite frankly I don't care or have to know. The liquid almost makes me gag with it's thick wintergreen flavor, but the tablets I can chew up quickly and get the overly powerful...

Pros: Portable, acceptable taste
Cons: Can cause you constipation and black stools

No need to wait for tablets to dissolve. No need to drink a foul tasting liquid. These little chewable tablets are just the thing to carry in your purse, briefcase, or pocket.
They come in little pouches so you do not need to carry the whole box...

Pros: works fast on kids
Cons: i don't like to chew things up

....one of those pink things. Mom I ate too much and it hurts. Mom I don't feel so good. When I hear these phrases, I go to the closet and get the Pepto chewable tablets. My son calls them the pink things.

My daughter, and I do not know...

Pros: highly portable
Cons: you have to be careful not to get residue on your lips

Ok, ok, maybe that sounds a little pathetic (or more than a little), but it's true. I never leave home without Pepto Bismol's 'crunchies'. I have reflux disease. Heartburn, nausea and reflux hit me at just about any time, anywhere. So I like to be...

Pros: It works fast
Cons: Temporary darkening of the tongue and stool!!! Tastes chalky!!

Okay, I'm sure this isn't one of the most popular subjects on Epinions, though everyone at some point in their lives has to think about it. Diarrhea, indigestion, nausea, and heartburn. There, now that I've said the dirty words, I can tell you how to...

Pros: Very convenient, fast acting, can be packed in just about anything, not messy
Cons: chalky, black tongue, needed more often

Others have stated how well it works and we all know that it does. Otherwise it would not have been around since dirt. We always had Pepto around when I was young and it was the kind of cure-all for everything from diarrhea to vomiting. It works quickly...

Pros: Very convienent, quick acting, portable
Cons: taste

I hate getting stomach aches, they make me feel like a little kid who just ate a big bag of candy. I hate indigestion also because i really dislike antacids like tums,etc. When I discovered the chewable tablets of Pepto-Bismol, I was so happy. Sometimes...

Pros: Kept me serviceable while fighting a stomach virus.
Cons: Turns your tongue a pleasant shade of black!

Pepto-Bismol is great medicine to ease an ailing stomach. While in Russia I contracted Lenin's revenge. Yuck. But Pepto-Bismol (out of all the different medicines I brought) really worked the best at warding off the stomach upset and cramping I was...

Pros: Ah!!!!!!!!!!Relief!!!!!!!
Cons: Can turn your tongue or stool temporarily black.

I have been having some stomach problems with nausea and started taking pepto-bismol chewables. It definitly gives instant relief as soon as it reaches your stomach. For me Pepto-Bismal worked more effectively then Tums and I will continue to use it for...

Pros: works quickly; lasts up to four hours
Cons: chalky taste; awful color

I admit it -- I get car sick (so give me the window seat!). Pepto-bismo tablets help me fight the nausea very well. Although the chalky taste is not the most pleasant, the chewable tablets are easy to take and work quickly. I have found that if two...
