PEPTO BISMOL ORIGINAL CHEWABLE TABLETS 24’S

Pepto-Bismol Original Chewable Tablets contain bismuth subsalicylate as the active ingredient. Bismuth subsalicylate has both antacid and anti-diarrheal properties, making it useful for treating various gastrointestinal issues, including:

• Indigestion: Pepto-Bismol helps neutralize excess stomach acid, providing relief from symptoms like heartburn, bloating, and discomfort.
• Nausea and Vomiting: It can alleviate symptoms of nausea and may help reduce vomiting.
• Diarrhea: Pepto-Bismol can help alleviate diarrhea symptoms by coating the stomach and intestinal lining, reducing irritation and fluid loss.

It’s important to follow the dosage instructions provided on the packaging or as directed by a healthcare professional. However, it’s typically recommended for adults and children over 12 years old to take 2 tablets every ½ to 1 hour as needed for diarrhea or symptoms of indigestion, up to 8 tablets in 24 hours.

It’s essential to note that while Pepto-Bismol is generally considered safe for short-term use, it’s not suitable for everyone, especially those with certain medical conditions or allergies. It’s always advisable to consult a healthcare professional before using Pepto-Bismol, especially if you have any underlying health concerns or are taking other medications.
