A member asked:
I feel like the pepto bismol (bismuth subsalicylate) didn't help in any way for my indigestion and heart burn. i think my stomach hurts worse. is there a reaction going on?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No, but see a doctor: Peptobismol is very safe. It would be very unusual to have a reaction to it. However, it is more likely you have a stomach problem that is not helped by the pb. Please see a doctor.
