I changed from IBS support to Align to see if it was more helpful but after 11 days, I had to stop taking it. I know you are supposed to stay on it for a month but I had 4-6 bouts of D everyday, heaps of gas in the morning and found it difficult to continue work. I am better on IBS support which doesn't give me gas at all. Haven't had any D since I changed back but do still have more BM's than I would like. I have been to a new specialist who has been really helpful. He has put me on a low dose of 'Tofranil' (10mg imipramine hydrochloride)which I think is calming my bowel but it is too early to tell yet. He has also helped me with my early morning meetings by telling me to start with an Immodium dose of 4 tablets, this seems to stop everything much more quickly. He has patients who are on 16 Immodium/day and he says Immodium is not habit forming and it only stays in the body for a day.
