Is Pepto Bismol an Anti-Diarrhea Medicine?

Will Pepto Bismol Stop Diarrhea?
One of the leading causes of diarrhea is bacteria. If left untreated, bacteria can multiply and your diarrhea may get worse or take longer to resolve. Pepto Diarrhea's dual-action formula kills bacteria that may cause diarrhea. Antibiotic use may also lead to diarrhea, as the antibiotics disrupt the balance of good and bad bacteria in the gut. You can turn to Pepto Bismol for antibiotic-related diarrhea relief.
Pepto Bismol may also help to prevent the occurrence of traveler's diarrhea. Traveler's diarrhea is caused by eating or drinking contaminated food or water and may happen when you're visiting places where sanitary practices differ from yours at home. Always keep some Pepto Bismol handy, and you could save yourself a lot of discomfort by treating symptoms the moment you start noticing them.
How Does Pepto Bismol Work for Diarrhea?
Diarrhea may be caused by bacteria, viruses, intestinal diseases, contaminated food or an array of other factors. When treating diarrhea, help prevent dehydration by drinking lots of fluids. An anti-diarrhea formula, such as Pepto Bismol, can further help ease symptoms. Bismuth subsalicylate, the active ingredient found in Pepto Bismol, has antibacterial, anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties, which may negate the need for antibiotics to treat most instances of diarrhea. Bismuth may have some therapeutic effects on your digestive system and may also bind to enterotoxins, which are harmful and may be the cause of a host of conditions that includes diarrhea. Pepto Diarrhea has a dual-action formula that coats and kills bacteria that cause diarrhea, helping to bring you relief.
