Can i take metamucil and pepto bismo at the sametime to help with mushy stools?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Why do you take another medication for countering the side effect of another medication? If you think metamucil causes mushy stool, you can try a different brand or change it to a stool softener or change your diet to a high fiber diet which will be healthier.
