Does this medicine tend to turn feces dark brown/black?

Since safety is our top priority, we can assure you that our products have been thoroughly evaluated to be safe when used as directed. When using Pepto-Bismol, a temporary and harmless darkening of the stool and/or tongue may occur. The active ingredient in Pepto-Bismol contains bismuth. When a small amount of bismuth combines with trace amounts of sulfur in your saliva and gastrointestinal tract, a black-colored substance (bismuth sulfide) is formed. This discoloration is temporary and harmless, and it can last several days after you stop taking Pepto-Bismol. Individual bowel habits, your age (the intestinal tract slows down with age), and the amount of the product taken all help to determine how long Pepto-Bismol is in your system. If you have any additional concerns, please check with your doctor. The Pepto Team
