A member asked:
Do you know of over-the-counter medications i can take to help with my irritable bowel syndrome?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
IBS can be either : Constipation dependent or diarrhea dependent. The choice of meds will depend on your symptomology. You can take over the counter meds depending on which symptoms are more prevalent in your case. Keep in mind its a diagnosis of exclusion. Dont diagnose yourself and see a physician to rule out any other causes.
