When I was fifteen years old, I had a terrible, terrible experience with the traditional liquid Pepto Bismol. Won't get into too much detail--suffice to say that the flu, beer, and Pepto don't mix. Since that time, I have been unable to "hang on to" ...

Pros: Manufactured by Pepto Bismol; can take with you anywhere.
Cons: Doesn't provide immediate relief like Liquid Pepto Bismol.

I wandered into the...

I went to Mexico and suffered badly from Montezuma's revenge (i needed the toilet every 10 minutes) and it was dehabilitating and exhausting. Having remembered these pink tablets i took with me, i rooted them and and the problem went away immediately - you can even feel your bowels relaxing moments after taking them ! the taste is odd - not unpleasant but a bit soapy. It grows on you.
