Pepto

[pixiegirl]

I know Pepto bismal is gluten-free, well the liquid stuff but are the chewable tablets gluten-free as well??

I was diagnosed last Sept. and going gluten-free cleared up my D immediately, then in late April I was in Florida and glutened almost every day, it was awful. I've had the runs and a sore belly since then and very little helps. Yes I'm calling my doctor today (which probably means I'm going to go thru weeks of tests, none of which I have time for and can't really take time off of work right now... sigh) but in the mean time Pepto keeps my belly from hurting, but its hard to carry around a big bottle of liquid...

Thanks, Susan

Susan,

When I'm feeling lousy or my belly is hurting Pepto is the only thing that brings me relief. I keep a bottle at work and a bottle at home. I also carry some tablets with me if I go out (Just In Case) and have not had any problem with them.

Best Of Luck!

Yep the tablets are gluten-free.

Remember to take the tablet Pepto WITH water! (Directions say not to chew and swallow without water)

I recently went back to school and decided to be prepared for all problems. So, now I bring a bottle of water along with my pepto in case I need it during class.
