How quickly do I increase the tummy fiber dosage?

I have been struggling with IBS-A - a few days of not going *at all*, followed by D, which has become more urgent and with little warning. Then the cycle repeats endlessly. I started taking the tummy fiber last Monday night and took the 1/2 t dose morning and night for 4 days, then added 1/4 t to the morning dose and I've done that now for 5 days.

I haven't noticed any problems with excess bloating, so I'm wondering, how soon and by how much should I be increasing my dose? I'm noticing an improvement in my symptoms but it's definitely not where I need to be, so I know I need to increase. The instructions on the container just said to gradually increase, but I'd like more details. Thanks!!
