For Indigestion "I get painful gas and bloating often after dinner, especially if I eat too much or too much fat. Pepto Bismol usually works great and within 20 minutes. Good stuff for sure."

For Indigestion "I can't take Pepto-Bismol, because if I do, I get an allergic reaction. I will break out in a rash. Shame too, it does help, but the rash isn't worth the risk."

"Helps with nausea was on the verge of getting sick but after taking Pepto it stopped my nausea by 70% within 1 or 2 hours. Helps stop diarrhea, heartburn, helps cool the stomach down."

For Diarrhea "Pepto-Bismol did nothing for me. I took the maximum amount recommended for a full day. Woke up the next morning to an undescribable condition. I'm going back to reliable Kaopectate."
