I've been taking Bentyl (dicyclomine) for years, and I'm also IBS-C. And gas and bloating are my main symptoms. Bentyl actually does wonders for pain and cramps due to gas. Sometimes I'll get gassy because of C, so I will take some dicyclomine, and shortly thereafter I'm able to "go"! Not sure why, but it's true. I've never felt that dicyclomine is constipating, and my C can get pretty bad. I'm currently trying to reduce my dependence on it, though, just because I'm tired of taking pills!

HTH,
Lisa, IBS-C
