I heard a commercial this morning for digestive advantage IBS, an over the counter IBS med. Anyone know anything about this? I have a feeling it doesn't work or it would be big news. Let me know if you know anything. I am currently taking 2 pills of Levsin every 4 hours and still cramping.

There have been a lot of posts about this - do a board search, and you're sure to turn up lots of information. If I remember correctly, it's basically a SFS and probiotic, so while it's not BAD, it's not the miracle cure they'd have you believe. But I haven't tried it personally, so... definitely try a search. Good luck!

Thank you. I always forget to do that first. I realized it after I had already posted that and looked around. Thanks

It takes a while to get the hang of this place. I can't even tell you how many times I asked questions without searching when I first got on here. Good luck with the search!

Wow, 2 pills of Levsin every 4? I'm taking 1 every 6. Didn't really feel the effects till the 3rd pill. So far so good. The Level of pain has gone down since the 5th dosage. It's certainly a sloooow process. Good luck.
