3.0 out of 5 stars Be careful- these can stain your teeth BLACK!, October 5, 2011

This review is from: Pepto-Bismol Upset Stomach Reliever/Antidiarrheal Chewable Tablets, Original, 48-Count Boxes (Pack of 3) (Health and Beauty)

I used these for months during antibiotic treatment for Lyme disease, pretty much every night, due to severe indigestion that was keeping me awake. They were helpful for that, but ended up staining my teeth black. Mostly around the gumline and between the teeth. Be careful and be sure and brush your teeth after using these! Now, I get the caplets that I can swallow with water, but after several cleanings, the stains are still there. Wish there was a warning on the box about this so I could have figured this out sooner. At first, I thought it was the doxycycline staining my teeth, but even after I stopped the antibiotics, the stomach problems lingered for months and my teeth got worse and worse as the months went on. The caplets aren't as convenient, but if you want to keep your teeth pearly white, they are worth the swallow: Pepto-Bismol Upset Stomach Reliever/Antidiarrheal Caplets, 40-Count Bottles (Pack of 3) Can't stomach the liquid after a childhood of it being forced on me when I had an upset stomach (it was guaranteed to make me sick, for sure?).

I have been putting together a long-term food storage locker and pepto-bismol is an essential to include. This is a much better deal on quantity discounts.

I keep this in the house at all times (and in my purse) in all forms: chewables, tablet and liquid. I use it mostly for upset tummies and/or the 'trots' for the dogs. With so many dogs (7), and extras when I have 'fosters', upset tummies due to anxiety, change in diet, change in environment, etc., are common & frequent. This product, coupled with boiled chicken/rice combo helps the pups rather quickly while settling their tummies and reducing gas.
