I've read that a lot of people use these post op to relieve the gas pain. But I can't find them in stores so I'm going to buy them online. Do they really work? Do they ( meaning dr and nurses) let you use them in the hospital post op? I guess if anyone can tell me are they really worth it?

I got mine at Safeway !

I bought a box at Walgreens Drug Store and found I didn't need them. I was told to walk around to relieve gas pains. Never really felt any gas pains. I only felt one of my incisions and it was tolerable that I only had one dose of pain med right after surgery. so I guess for me, it wasn't worth it.

Look in the antacid aisle. Since they are strips that dissolve in the mouth, they can be used in the hospital. I paid about 3.50 for a box.

I got mine at Walmart, by the tums! Yes, they were life savers for me...I still use them on occasion! They work fast!

They work, at least for me, and they work fast. I still use them occasionally. I picked mine up at WalMart.

CVS, or Rite Aid

Also Walmart

Gas-X strips tasted absolutely gross to me. I went back to using the chewable Gax-X and they work just fine.

Getting my supplies together for my March 26th date. I picked these up today at Walgreens.

I'm one day before you march 25th can't wait

You guys are fortunate to know about those strips. My pains from the gas they use during the operation made me close to tears for 5 DAYS.

Found them in Walmart tonight! I got a box of strips and a box of chewable. Thanks everyone!
