I don't take any gas pills. I used to take GasX...but it seems to make things worse (it makes the trapped gas come out...but when you're at work, that's BAD news!) I actually hold in--VERY unhealthy--as I haven't found a better solution! Someone on the boards recommends taking charcoal pills. I've spent SO much money on trying different remedies for my tummy this year (my first year of marriage) I feel bad asking my hubby to keep spending our limited money on it. If you have the money, I would try the charcoal pills. Do a search for it on the boards and you'll find out lots of info. Good luck and keep me posted!!!!!
