Help! I need gas relief but can't tolerate Gas X

Currently I had been using Gas X gel pills, however, now I can't tolerate the Gas X because it has peppermint oil in it and I can feel peppermint oil inside me when the gel pill is going down.

What gas relief product should I use? Without peppermint oil.

Thanks,

I use Gas-X chewables.  There is no peppermint oil in them.

Several things that help:

WALK around the house...up and down a hallway, to the bathroom, the kitchen, etc...but movement helps'

Rock when on the potty...back and forth...something about that movement also helps

Get someone to rub your back.

GasX chewables

And TIME...I know it hurts right now but it DOES get better.

Actually it hurts to walk or move at first, but once you get limping along and you start to relax, it feels so much better to walk.   Once I got going with the dog, I didn't want to stop.

gas-x is no help for me either. walking and movement is really the best to breakup that painful gas.  but when it is just too uncomfortable to walk,  i get down on all fours (the bed is the most comfortable for me) and rock back and forth.  usually within a few minutes i feel the gas move and soon make it's great escape into the atmosphere were the smell will surely remove the first layer of paint and keep irritating husband's at bay.  lol

good luck.

I read somewhere that it helps to chew fennel seeds, and I have tried it a few times.  It seems to help a little, but tastes awful.  Walking definitely.  I will do some squats also and that helps to move the gas either up (burp) or down (fart).
