What is the highest dose that you can be on with bentyl (dicyclomine) for ibs? and is there another medicine that's stronger than bentyl (dicyclomine)?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
The highest dose: Is 40 mg 4 times a day. But by that time I usually try something else . You don't list your mess or what you have tried. Hyoscyamine SL would be something to consider
