Thanks for the information. Magnesium gives me diarrhea, so that's out. I will ask my doctor about Pepcid or Zantac.

@kdsm the reason I mentioned Magnesium was that it makes stools looser to combat the constipation from pain meds. Magnesium glycinate is gentler and several online sources say it does not cause diarrhea or irritate the gut.

There are different types of magnesium. Magnesium citrate will give you diarrhea. Check the others.
