My husband and I were on vacation and at an amusement park. We ate some food and a few hours later felt pretty sick. We couldn't leave due to other people we were with, and went to the First Aid station. That's the first time we had the pepto pills and they worked great. Now we use them any time we have an upset stomach!

I find these pills to be very soothing to my stomach and intestines. I take them whenever I get diarrhea or stomach cramps. Helpful for nausea, too, although I find ginger capsules to be the best thing for nausea. I cannot tolerate the liquid. The taste and smell of the thick liquid repulses me and makes me nauseous.

I keep this in my travel bag, for when I eat out and they go heavy on the oil and butter. This works well for a quick fix.

Not as good as the liquid

Well, for most people this product works just as well as the liquid kind. For me, it doesn't. I have a suppppper sensitive stomach and I use the liquid kind almost everyday. The pills sounded great for while I'm out, but it doesn't seem to work nearly as well as the liquid. I don't feel this stuff even start to work until about an hour later. The liquid kicks in almost right away.

I'll take these over the liquid Pepto Bismol any day - I can't stand that thick pink liquid! However, I don't find the caplets to be very effective. They're okay for mild nausea, but that's about it. If you're in serious stomach distress, Imodium is better.
Adults: 2 tablet. Children: 9 to 12 yrs. 1 tablets. 6 to 9 yrs. 2/3 tablet. 3 to 6 years. 1/3 tablet. Under 3 yrs. ask a doctor. Swallow caplet(s) with water, do not chew. Repeat every 1/2 to 1 hour as needed, to maximum of 8 doses in a 24-hour period. If symptoms persist, consult a doctor. Drink plenty of clear fluids to help prevent dehydration which may accompany diarrhea.
