Truth in advertising? XXXIII

In seeking to soothe my turbulent stomach tonight, I noticed an inconsistency in Pepto-Bismol (or Pepto Bismol?) labels.  One of them shows the product name with a hyphen; the other, however, shows it without the hyphen.

I'm not sure which one is correct.  Even in the midst of an upset stomach, however, I still can't turn off my inclination to edit copy.  However, as long as the medicine works, they can call it "Gorfgeefeluh," "Zorftabula," or "Grog," as far as I'm concerned.
