A member asked:

Can either pepcid complete or pepto bismal cause dry mouth? am taking them for some heartburn relief?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: But if you have a problem with chronic recurrent heartburn you need to be evaluated by your General Physician or a specialist Gastroenterologist. Chronic unremitting heartburn may be a symptom of one or more problems that require treatment of the cause(s), not masking of the symptom.
