As i've mentioned before I have IBS-D (high-to-severe) and im taking alot of immodium in an attempt to get by on my days, I'd slowly switch over to natural supplements.

Is it safe to take the Peppermint caps and Acacia fiber at the same time? do either cancel eachother out?

No they don't cancel each other out. Acacia is a soluble fibre supplement, not a medication and the caps help with spasms, etc. Remember though not to take them together at the exact same time because you only need a very small sip of water to swallow the caps, otherwise they dissolve too quickly in the stomach and don't make it into the intestine where you need it.
