Psyllium: Soluble fiber such as ispaghula, calcium polycarbophil, or Psyllium, which is found in Metamucil, have been shown to reduce universal symptoms in IBS. Metamucil does contain other added ingredients, so it may be best to take psyllium in a more natural form. (available at a natural food store) Oats/oat bran may be effective for those with IBS-C. Psyllium does not interfere with Linzess.
