Hard to find the peppermint flavor- I hate the cherry-flavored ones & that's all that seems to be carried in my area. I use these whenever mild acid reflux, upset stomach or bloating occurs. For more serious diarrhea, especially when caused by a virus, Imodium A-D has to be kept on hand. But Pepto-Bismol works well, 9 times out of 10, on minor-to-moderate stomach/intestinal ailments.

I often rush from one thing to another, grabbing something to eat on the fly. As a result, my tummy is often unhappy. I've learned to keep these tablets in my desk, my car, my suitcase, my carry-on, and my purse. Relieves upset stomach and diarrhea in short time without repercussions the next day.

This type of packaging is super, small and easy to carry.The tablets are hard to retrieve from the plastic packaging. Maybe a small slit marked "Tear here" would be useful. If you use this idea I want a commission...Fast relief and glad the product is offered online. [...] use to carry this but quit but like so many things that people use now days stores will carry it for awhile and then quit. DrugStore.com has been consistent in carrying this product for a couple of years. This product is hard to find at drugstores too...

My husband and I travel a lot. There's nothing worse than being in a hotel room before an important business meetings and feeling queasy. Pepto-bismol chewables take care of the problem very quickly with no side effects AND don't cause a problem with the "limited liquids" rules on airplanes.

I have Crohn's disease, which for the most part stays in remission. But there are times when I eat something disagreeable to me or just have a relapse. This tried-and-true product really works for every stomach/intestinal problem I come up against. The drawback is it does temporarily turn your tongue black (the next day). But that is a small price to pay for the relief this simple product provides. I take three at a time, and within an hour (at most), I feel completely better.

I suffer from IBS. On occasion it makes me lose an entire night's sleep running back and forth to the bathroom. If I take 2 doses of this at once, I'm ok for the night. I find it hard to take 'cause i HATE the taste. I break the tablets into smaller pieces and swallow them like pills with water instead of chewing them. This works fine and I'm happy to go through this ordeal in order to get to sleep.

I love the taste and it's very soothing for acid stomach, when I hadn't had much luck with Pepcid AC. I take the chewables with no reservations, even though I have a hard time stomaching the liquid Pepto-Bismol.
