Yes: There are no known harmful effects to taking peppermint oil with trimebutine maleate. In most cases, you can control mild symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome by learning to manage stress and changing your diet and lifestyle. Avoid foods that trigger your symptoms. Also try to get enough exercise, drink plenty of fluids, and get plenty of rest. Have you tried probiotics? Hope you feel better soon.
