    Beano left me with severe stomach pain, gas and diarrhea. I took it for three days to help with gas/bloating and I was getting worse. I stopped taking it and it is still working through my system. Will never take/buy it again!

    Works well for gas, but must be if the meal is very large or excessive, then it doesnt work as well. Also if there is already constipation, it seem to cause diarrea or gas because its trying to move through that blockage!(but that stuff needs to come out anyway - so bonus..) Works for me as long as I am not overeating. 2 with lunch, 3 with dinner.

    It seems as though I get bloated from many foods, so I take two Beanos with about everything I consume, but I find it of little help.

    My boyfriend took Beano before dinner tonight. He started complaining about his stomach a little while after. About half an hour ago he said he got a terrible rush of dizziness and has been in the bathroom vomiting horribly since then.

    Used Beano two completely different times before eating chili. Did not experience gas, but both times, had to get to bathroom fast, after eating. Left me feeling a little nauseous and afraid to get far from the bathroom.
