Avatar f tn Have you tried alka seltzer, pepto bismol? Maybe one of the antacids like prevacid, prilosec. Another one is Omeprazole that you can buy over the counter. Two more, Pepcid and Zantac. Otherwise, go to the doc.
Avatar f tn If so, i would also invest in a lot of pepto bismol to help coat the throat to reduce damage- just to be extra cautious- as acid in throat can sometimes lead to cancer- which you no doubt know- The pepto will help soothe the stomach also- but it can be a bit hard to get used to taste- I had bleeding ulcer that came close to taking my life, and doc put me on acid reducer meds but also recommended i have a steady intake of the pepto to take throughout the day too- Acid meds like prilosec are lo
974371 tn?1424653129 He has now told me to taker Pepto Bismol 4 times a day and Pepcid. Between the two, my chronic drymouth and throat is much worse. He wants me to do this 4 times a day. Some days I use it 4 times and other days maybe twice. Haven't taken any more Pepcid due to the dryness. Nurse at Stanford also told me to try the enteric peppermint oil and 30 days of probiotics after the Xifaxan treatment. I am still waking up nauseated and having bloating problems.
974371 tn?1424653129 Hi, like I mentioned, the nausea could be a side effect of pepto bismol. Probiotics contain good bacteria and help with digestion. And Prebiotics are nondigestible carbohydrates that act as food for probiotics. Probiotics are found in foods such as yogurt, while prebiotics are found in whole grains, bananas, onions, garlic, honey and artichokes. A combination of two in a healthy diet is beneficial. Try this. Regards.
Avatar f tn Is it ok to take pepto bismol for heartburn while pregnant?
Avatar f tn I don't think so. Crackers and ginger...I survived off of Canada Dry ginger ale for awhile. Sounds like morning sickness, it should pass after the first trimester, but if it's horrible you might see your doctor for a prescription that's safe during pregancy.
Avatar f tn No, pepto bismol is not safe to take during pregnancy. If you are having morning sickness you need to call your OB/Midwife and ask for something to help.
Avatar f tn Gravol and tums help aswell.
3138931 tn?1350940318 I took pepto bismol on Saturday and Sunday. And lots of tylenol yesterday. Been sick for three days.
593603 tn?1229378162 My RE and my OB both said I could take Zantac 150 - - didn't want me to take Pepto Bismol (b/c it has aspirin in it) or Prilosec OTC (it's a category C).
1437406 tn?1283839310 I have acid reflux and usually take prilosec but my doctor changed me to ranitidine. Tums also helps. Dr. said NO Pepto Bismol. How far along is your wife?
Avatar n tn I try to minimize my acidic intake to see if that will help, and yes, pepto-bismol definitely helps. I wonder how long it takes to repair damaged stomach lining, from Nsaid overuse??? Any thoughts on that. I am going to try drinking ginger tea to see if that helps...
Avatar f tn Prior to this I unsuccessfully tried tums, pepcid, zantac, prilosec, pepto bismol, and GasX (simethicone). So...this is the cure for me. Who would have guessed it could be fixed with a home remedy?? I highly recommend this remedy for anyone suffering with "egg (sulfur) burps" !!! Watch your sodium intake after since it is so high in sodium. Good luck!!!
Avatar m tn pepto bismol does that.
Avatar f tn I really like the smoothies tums they are good. But your are very right about pepto and it containing aspirin !! If your ever unsure ask a doctor or google it!
Avatar m tn so to clear up constipation, i took pepto bismol(30 mL). however, i noticed later the warning by pepto bismol that I am not supposed to take it if I have fever. So you think I can develop reye's syndrome? btw, I am almost 18 years old.
974371 tn?1424653129 Took Omeprazole then Pepto Bismol twice and my Xanax, 1/2 pill. Now, my mouth is extremely dry. The doctor had given me Carafate and I finally broke down and used some. After almost 2 hours, not much improvement, mouth drier and now getting a headache. Ideas?
Avatar n tn I, too, started taking pepto bismol and woke up w/a coated black tongue...really scary!.....I haver dreamed it was the pepto! What a relief! thanks!
Avatar f tn According to the list my OB gave me, you can use Koapectate, Imodium, Pepcid AC and Tums...Pepto Bismol and Mylanta aren't on the list. :( I've asked the pharmacist for guidance before...just let them know that you're pregnant and they'll show you what's safe.
Avatar n tn I have recent had an upset stomach and diarrhoea and taken some pepto bismol to help settle the stomach which worked. my stools today was black with like a fatty substance on it. what is the fatty substance does this need checking out or has it been caused from the pepto bimol.
Avatar n tn ve been treated multiple times for h pylori bacteria with Tetracycline or Flagyl and Pepto Bismol tablets. I also take probiotics and I believe the first time I took the probiotics that it helped digestive problems. Try taking the Pepto Bismol tablets (four tablets every six hours) and see if it helps. When I feel like I'm having a flare up, I take the tablets for a couple of days, and it seems to help. Oddly enough, it's the Pepto that kills the h phlori not the antibiotics.
Avatar m tn I really am looking for some home remedy to get me through this, but all I can find in the house are Pepto Bismol and Ginger Ale. Will these do any good? I can find a pharmacy or store, but not until I feel halfway better to brave driving a few blocks. Suggestions for today? I know what not to do in the future.
Avatar n tn I just want to say that Pepto-Bismol is most likely causing her black stools. Black stools from Pepto-Bismol are nothing serious. If she stopped taking it for a few days her stool color will probably go back to normal.
Avatar n tn My stomach is really sensitive to some medications (antibiotics, even some over the counter stuff), but unfortunately, I don't usually know what meds will bother me until I take them. When I do take something that bothers my stomach, the pain is really intense and it can take hours to go away. Pepto-bismol and tums don't help me at all in these cases. I'd like to say that I'll just make sure I'll never take a medication again that bothers me, but I think that's unlikely.
560753 tn?1216052052 After that he prescribed me with Nexium, Prilosec and that was it. I was ok for a month or so and then I developed constipation. So I was switching from diarrea to constipation on and off. The burping continue and it seems to happend before I get my period. Is 5:41 am and I got up because of gas in my stomach and diarrea. I haven't being able to have a deasent night of sleep for the past 4 days. That happens every month. And I just don't know what to do.
