You can take a couple of Tums. I have found that ginger ale and some saltines work just about as good as any medicine. You can also try eating bananas.

There really isn't a great medicine to treat the ache. You need to treat whatever is causing the stomach ache. Just treating the pain can be detrimental because you may be covering up a more serious health issue.

Pepto Bismol does not have aspirin in it. For gas pain take a medicine containing simethicone. For heartburn or indegestion take an antacid such as Tums.
