Does pepto bismol (bismuth subsalicylate) intefrere with the birth control pill's effects?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: It does not interact with oral contraceptives. Pepto bismol may react with other medications (such as tetracycline antibiotics, chloroquine), preventing them from being fully absorbed by your body.
