I'm on hyoscamine for the second time now. I was on it for about a year when I was first diagnosed, but it stopped working. This time, I'm supposed to only take it when I'm in pain, but it's not working. It's an anti-spasmodic, it's supposed to calm the spasms in your intestines which could be causing the pain. I'm IBS-D, but it isn't helping my D either....if it's not helping the pain, and you're taking 3 a day, which is way more than I ever took even when it was working (I've never taken more than 1 a day because more than that made me C), you may need to talk you doc into some new meds.
IBS-A is alternating IBS, sometimes you have C, sometimes you have D. Hope this helps and you feel better soon!
