Can you take pepto bismol before you drink?

Question

drink alcohol that is.

Answer 1

There is no interaction or real negative consequence related to combining Pepto Bismol and alcohol, but it is likely that alcohol will worsen any problem you may have.

Answer 2

Yeah, I have done it before. But I think pepcid complete works way way way better. Just take one and heartburn is done!

Answer 3

I don't drink so I don't know... sorry

Answer 4

Ooooooh.  My stomach is turning sour just thinking about it.  

*gag*

No.  If you are looking for ways to avoid a nasty hangover, then all you need to do is keep hydrated.  Also, eating a lot of vitamin B-12 helps a great deal.  In college, my roommates and I would stand around eating raw broccoli with ranch dip.  Another thing to remember is to avoid mixing your drinks.  If you start the night off with vodka, then don't drink anything but vodka.  This doesn't limit your choices of drinks, just make sure the alcohol in each drink is vodka (martinis, mixed drinks, etc).  Don't go do a shot of Wild Turkey.

Before you go to bed, take four Advil and chug a huge glass of water.  

Answer 5

I'm not sure, but I know someone who drank vegetable oil beforehand once. I don't remember if it worked or not, but I sure thought it was a gross idea! I think I'd rather take my chances with the alcohol!

Answer 6

Yes, but it will cause darkening of the stool.  The back of your toilet will look like a mudslide.
