milk of magnesia tastes revolting

[aramir]

I don't think I've ever experienced something so horrid , I don't even know how to describe the bland and milky taste , I still feel like puking it out 2 hours after taking it. I guess I'm going to have to try a different anti acid .

I think milk of magnesia will can also give you very bad diarrhea.

On higher dosis, yes.

Need to take a lot of milk of mag to cause diarrhea, the peppermint variety is very pleasant to swallow. I used to take it alot years ago for my stomach problems, was my saviour. Sadly cant take it anymore.

Ugh.. I used get forced to have that as a child. I agree it's really gross

Use tums? Honestly I'm assuming all of the options are gross

I'm that weird one that likes the taste and chalky texture lol.

Ugh I had to use it medically like a year or so ago. Really nasty. Surprising it bothers you that badly. I'm sure there's alternatives! For me it was last resort but it worked.

I kinda like the taste of Magnesium Sulfate (Epsom) , Oxide (Pills) , and Hydroxide (Milk) They all do the same .... Interesting and different aftertastes.

But NOT Magnesium Chloride ! (E511)

It's probably worse than salt/SN -- extremely biter and stingy. Well it shouldn't be consumed lol

If you can't handle milk of magnesia, try getting a pill of diphenhydramine/Benadryl or a benzo or something similar and suck on that for a while. After that training you would gladly drink milk of magnesia.

That stuff is so nasty

Tums contain calcium carbonate. Stan and @Quarky00 advise to use an antacid containing magnesium hydroxide, so are tums ok?

@Daniela found Maalox, which contains magnesium hydroxide, but also aluminium oxide. It is OTC. So we can use that, right?

I will need to do more research into that one. Thank you for the heads up.
