Does Gas-X work for us or any similiar product?

Is it worth spending my few bucks on?

I had more than my fair share of regular, old-fashioned peanut butter cookies (some protein!), but of course now I have Gas From Hell.  It doesn't actually hurt - it's not that rumbling gut type, more like the silent-but-oh-so-deadly type.

Does Gas-X work?  Any suggestions to help out those around me?

 Gas-X didn't do much for me the one time I've taken it postop.  It may work better now that things have "settled" in there a bit for me.  I dunno.  I would think it's worth a shot?

 gasx works for me, but I have to take it prior to eating whatever I'm eating that I know is going to cause it.

It only helps me if I take it when I eat the offending food.

Must take before hand - good to know!  If it works for anyone else after the fact, please feel free to let me know :)

I tried it a few weeks ago and it does help with my grumble gut whether I take it before or after I eat the offending food. Just got my Primal Defense Ultra in the mail today...hope that helps with the silent but deadlies.

it works after the fact for me.  If you have the bloated, gassy feelin', mountain climbers always work for me!

It'**** or miss for me, depending on what is causing the gas, but I have better results with the chewables than with the pill form.  And I never had much luck with those melty things you put on your tongue, even as a pre-op.

I think that Gas-X works on gas in the stomach. Not intestinal gas. For me, I find that Digestive Advantage: Gas Defense Formula works better on intestinal gas.

It has worked for me the few times I've taken it.  All I had was the strips that you're to dissolve on your tongue.  No freakin' way..not with the gag reflex!  I folded them up into tiny squares and swallowed them like pills.
