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 f tn So, tums wasn't working well for me and my doc said it was OK for me to take pepto. Now, I'm reading from some others that its not OK. I took it once yesterday. Has anyone else taken pepto ? I'm 27w and 4d.
974371 tn?1424653129 Even the enteric peppermint oil is repeating on me. Now, my low back and hip are hurting again and am afraid it is all the Pepto. I read it can cause myscle problems. I am still not even sure what I have and feel my GI doctor has given up.
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 Ah, I only take it when I absoululy need to! But thank you ladies.! I had to take one today becuase I'm with my brother and father and they don't know also with my mom and cousin and they do know and we are out in Texas. 21 hours away from home.
Avatar f tn Pepto is fine. I've heard pickle juice works too. You can also try zantac 150.
Avatar f tn I have been feeling nauseous lately (5 weeks), & pre-pregnancy have always taken pepto bismol. Is this safe to take while pregnant?

Avatar f tn Gravol and tums help aswell.
Avatar f tn No its not try tums and 7 up
Avatar m tn 0 grams (4 500 mg pills) taken at one time is just as effective as penicillin for syphilis treatment however, there are some cases of treatment failures with azithromycin for syphilis treatment and many of the treatment failures have come from San Francisco where you apparently live. Thus this is a matter of concern. While many people will be cured by therapy of early syphilis with azithromycin, the dose you have received is not the recommended dose.
Avatar m tn I read online that the combination of Ciprofloxacin and Azithromycin can be dangerous. Is this still the case, if the last Ciprodose was one week before the 2g Azithromycin dose?
3138931 tn?1350940318 I took pepto bismol on Saturday and Sunday. And lots of tylenol yesterday. Been sick for three days.
Avatar n tn I agree^ pepto is off limits while pregnant
Avatar n tn I have read lots of your post concerning biaxin and azithromycin and whether they cure syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia and NGU. I have found that biaxin is chemically different than azithromycin but biologically same at killing bacteria as azithromycin. On some post you say that azithromycin or clarithromycin(biaxin) would cure all the bacterial stds then in others you state that there could be some problems. by H. Hunter Handsfield, M.D.
556500 tn?1222338630 hi, dark stools indicate internal bleeding of some sort, could be an ulcer or diverticular and yes the pepto should be out of your system, eat plenty of fresh friut and vegies, cheers.
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.
384896 tn?1335294331 Well I just found out a few days ago that #3 is on the way. I haven't been to the doc yet (3rd time in a row, gatta go through the whole getting insurance thing, ugh). But if I calculated correctly, I'm roughly around 6 weeks and just got slammed with pregnancy symptoms. I'm nauseous almost non stop all day and night. The only time I get away from it is when I'm asleep. I can barely eat. I can barely drink anything outside of the water or ginger ale department.
Avatar f tn At this point you're probably pretty dehydrated since you say you're weak and feeling cold - both can be signs of dehydration. Did the black diarrea start before or after you took the Pepto? I'm asking because Pepto can cause your stools (and even tongue) to turn black temporarily - however, if your stools were a black color before taking the meds, it could be a sign of blood in the stool, which could be serious.
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!
1475515 tn?1287189318 Diarrhea usually clears itself up, I had it bad in early pregnancy and it stopped on it's own, drink LOTS of water, and drinks with electrolytes, like gatorade, etc. Ask your doctor about any medication you're unsure of, especially if you're high risk!
Avatar m tn Hi, I got a test done and it came back positive for chlamydia. I took 1g of azithromycin on Monday night. I went to a lunch today and I started drinking a beer because it had totally slipped my mind that I took the medication on Monday. I finished the one beer, but drank only water the rest of the time. Will that one beer affect my being cured or affect the medication? Thanks.
Avatar m tn The next day i was feeling great, i had cereal in the morning and ate some soup around lunch time, i had a brownie around 4 and started to feel sick again. I felt really bloated and weak and slightly feverish again. Took some pepto for nausea and bloating, Motrin for fever, and felt ok. Around 8 i had chicken and another brownie and felt bloated and nauseated, a little sweating in my palms that went away slowly.
4114400 tn?1349923931 So I have been experiancing some pretty bad heart burn the last couple weeks thinking it was gonna be like my first pregnancy and be really bad so i got zantac (worked for first pregnancy not this one) my first pregnancy pepto and tums made me sick to my stomach well i tried pepto this time and i have gotten some relief finally.. maybe i will try some tums to.
