Im less than 24 hrs post op. no one suggested gas x strips at hosp or dr. But have read a few posts here about them.my gas is very uncomfortable

Absolutely, they are probably the safest thing out there as they melt in your mouth. Hope that you feel better! Karen

I used the strips and loved them because they were small and so very easy to carry in my wallet or pocket. They do have a funny taste and texture, but so much easier than having to deal with the pills.

If those don't work, look for a gas relief called Phazime. It comes in a pink or purple box. The strips didn't work for me but the Phazime was wonderful. Worked in one dose.
