A member asked:

Is it okay to take pepto bismol (bismuth subsalicylate) with an anal fissure?

2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

Yes: Unless it causes you to become constipated. Want to avoid diarrhea & constipation until fissure has healed. Have you had the fissure examined and received treatment recommendations from a doctor?

No : Fissures need colo-rectal surgeon evaluation for treatment. If infected may need antibiotics.
