Pepto Kids
Common Tummy Troubles in Kids
Picture this: your little one runs up to you, holding their stomach and making a face like they just ate a whole lemon. We've all been there before — the dreaded "my tummy hurts" complaint. And two well-known culprits for this universal discomfort are acid indigestion and heartburn.
Occasional acid indigestion and heartburn can happen after kids eat or drink too much, eat too quickly, or eat high-fat foods. So, how can you tell if your little one is dealing with indigestion? Look out for signs of feeling too full or uncomfortable after eating a meal or experiencing a burning sensation in the upper part of their tummy.1
Acid indigestion can happen when stomach acid travels back into the tube carrying food from the mouth to the stomach. It can cause your child to feel a burning sensation in their chest or throat, and that’s called heartburn.
But don’t worry. You have options for upset stomach medicine for kids that can help your little one feel better.
When little tummies get upset, you can turn to Pepto Kids, read each label to find the right product for your kids’ needs.
