Pepto Bismol For Benzo Belly


[Th...]

Recommended Posts

I've read some of the other Pepto Bismol related threads but was just curious if Pepto helps benzo belly while the individual is on Ativan, Zoloft and Clonidine.

 

-Thanks

For the first time in my Ativan taper, I reached out and took some pepto bismol due to a severely bad stomach ache from overeating at dinner (not from benzos).  I took the pepto just 2 hours before my (before bed) Ativan dose and noticed no ill effect of the pepto on my response to Ativan. Either in the 2 hours after dosing ativan, dueing my sleep, or now this morning.
