So peptibismol is out of stock everywhere!!!!

DS is feeling iffy, naesuas and now been sick. Pep usually settles his tummy but apparently a shortage everywhere.

Can you suggest an alternative?

I find charcoal tablets can help when my tummy is upset.

Andrews Liver Salts can help. It is very frustrating about Peptol Bismol. I tried getting it over 6 months ago with no luck.

Interested in this thread?

I posted this same thing the other day. It's so annoying. My mum is sending me some from NY.

It's the only thing that works for me too.

My nana swears by andrews salts.

I would suggest kolanticon gel but I think that is also out of stock.

What age? There are lots of anti sickness tablets you can buy in a pharmacy.

Might be an old wives talks but always worked for me- a glass of full fat flat cola with a spoon of sugar in, have to down it but it has saved me so many times with sickness bugs. Like I say may all be in my head but has always worked x

What's making him nauseous?

I'm surprised they didn't offer Buccastem, Stugeron et.

Milk of magnesia is a good suggestion for upset tummy/nausea. Might make him poop though.
I've been using Rennie Orange or Spearmint chewables.
