DID YOU KNOW: Bismuth subsalicylate is the only active ingredient in an over the counter medication that will actually leave a shiny metal slag behind after being completely burnt with a blow torch?

There are some adverse effects. It can cause a black tongue and black stools in some users of the drug, when it combines with trace amounts of sulfur in saliva and the gastrointestinal tract to form bismuth sulfide.[2] This discoloration is temporary and harmless.

Interesting stuff.
