For some people, BP has been helpful in reducing or managing pouchitis symptoms as well. I don't use it often anymore. Be aware, however, that if you are using it regularly, it can interfere with the absorption of some other medications/supplements. It can also cause unusual colourations of the stool which can be alarming if you aren't prepared for it. I've had everything from a rusty colour to greenish to black when I've used Pepto. I recently freaked out because I had maroon coloured stool after using Pepto. I have used it before but not with that particular result.
But colour returned to normal after cutting out the PB entirely so I can only finger that as being the cause. But again, something to watch so you know what's going on.
