If I'm going to take this GI cocktail for the first time ever, could I finally eat something? Can it be taken with food and what am I allowed to eat? Does somebody know?

Yes your right. My daughter has no insurance and in bad need of gall bladder surgery. She has depended on this for her pain. I went to pick up her script for the week that usually cost $35.00. But it is now $100.00. She must now learn to suffer.

It cost 30.00 for 400ml at CVS with prescrition and no insurance. If insured then it will cost just a co payment.

What Celeste says is absolutely true as I just had one of these at the ER this past Sunday morning. This was my second attack of very severe dyspeptic pain this year, so I opted to try this cocktail first instead of the I.V. drugs that I was given in the past. This cocktail worked like a charm in 20 - 30 minutes!
