Pepto Bismol Caplets for Nausea, Heartburn, Indigestion, Upset Stomach, and Diarrhea - 5 Symptom Fast Relief in a Convenient Form 24 ct (Pack of 4)

This is the only orick i have ever foubmnd to help for bloating and upset stomach.

Because of my IBS I have a lot of runny dumps. Sometimes it comes on so fast that I go from no feelings at all to "panic mode" and need to find a bathroom RIGHT NOW in a period of less than five minutes. It's really a bummer. (See what I did there?). When I was younger I could eat just about whatever I wanted without trouble. Now I just look at pizza and I can feel diarrhea forming in my intestines. If trouble sets in, I can basically plan for five or six trips on the porcelain bus over the next two hours, each time just completely painting the bowl. By the time the runny dumps set in, it's basically too late for Pepto. But often I'll make a preemptive strike against my colon and throw a few of these pills back either right before or right after I eat and it seems to help. I get the 'rrhea less frequently than usual with this method. The down side is that these little pink critters really taste foul, like swallowing angry chalk after it's been used to write racial epithets on the sidewalk in front of a Trump rally. But that's a small price to pay for not making doody in my shorts. I like that Amazon sells these in a multi-pack. Whenever I buy 3 or 4 boxes at Target, the cashier looks at me like I have a problem. But let's face it…I do.

These caplets do exactly what you expect Pepto to do, and without the unpleasant taste or feel of the liquid or "melt in the mouth" versions. Easy and effective, which is what you want when you need the relief.

I mean what is there to say. It's pepto, its the best working stomach medicine on the market. Covers any base you might need. I always have a bottle on me or near me. Stuff is wonderful. I do not know why it asked me to review the flavor, these are pills and chalky pills at that. The flavor is abysmal, but if you're taking a pill right you shouldn't be licking/tasting it.

Drugs tend to stop working after a while. Pepto is different, it just keeps working. So I'd wanna give it 5 stars. But I can only give 'em 4. Mom takes 2 caplets, 3 times a day, and then she's good. Only problem is that the surface of the Pepto caplets aren't glossy-smooth. I think they could be used as a small pink chalk for a blackboard or sidewalk. Their surface is rough enough to give Mom significant trouble swallowing them. But she says she'd rather have the challenge of occasionally gagging on the caplets rather than chew up tablets or drink the liquid. I don't know why Pepto can't provide a tab or cap with a smooth surface. If I can find all the necessary dimensions on the internet, I will pursue purchasing gelatin capsules into which I can place the caplets. Ma will have a much easier time with the smooth surface of a capsule. I don't know what took me so long to think of it.

Well, the title really says it all. Just a quick travel tip - I took 3 bottles of this on a recent trip to India to take as a preventative measure and I am so glad I did. I have never taken pepto before and didn't know if it would do anything, but it definitely helped. We took 1 capsule (1/2 adult amount) before every meal or snack, and man, we were not being overly cautious about where we ate - street food, raw juice, karah parshad at a small-town gurudwara...and no crazy travel stomach stories that you often hear. Granted, you never fully have your proper appetite, but no one had to rush to the bathroom at a truly inopportune time, and we got to be much more adventurous eaters. A low-grade of nausea but still being able to sight-see is far better than the bathroom horror stories I heard of before my trip. Disclaimer - this stuff will make your poops weirdly dark and have an odd consistency, but hey... those street samosas are worth it. The practical: The capsules are unflavored but hard to dry-swallow, so make sure you have bottled/trusted water with you at all times!

I got recommended these and wow they work great. Far more convenient than the liquid form and more convenient than lets say tums which has a huge container usually. They are great for travel and every day use, for before or after symptoms show up at least in my case. Also ingredient wise this isn't very harsh on the system at all compared to stronger stuff.

The description clearly states that 4 packages are included in the order. I ordered this to be delivered to my father in law and he only received 1 box of the caplets. I need to have 3 additional boxes shipped at NO CHARGE. I was billed for 4 boxes of the product.
