How long does it take for pepto bismol (bismuth subsalicylate) tablets to start working?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Usually 20-30 min : For most people it takes effect within the hour. If your symptoms persist after taking the medication I would follow up with your PCP to make sure nothing else going on
