GENERAL DESCRIPTION & APPLICATIONS

Bismuth subsalicylate, a bismuth salt of salicylic acid, is the active ingredient in popular medication Pepto-Bismol (a non-aspirin salicylate medication produced by the Procter and Gamble) and Kaopectate from Chattem, Inc. It is used as an antidiarrheal and in the treatment of gastric distress, including nausea, indigestion, and heartburn; administered orally. It acts as an anti-inflammatory or mild antibiotic. It displays also an antacid action which counteracts or neutralizes acidity, usually of the stomach. Some examples of antacid and antidiarrheal ingredients include:
