Re: Anti Spasmodics and IBS-C       01/24/05 06:05 AM Edit Reply Quote melissam Reged: 12/13/04 Posts: 308 Loc: Scranton Pennsylvania Augie- I took Levsin and NuLev- they are the same medicine hyoscamine. They are manufactrued at the same place but marketed under different names. I took the .125 mg and it made me very drowsy, the weird thing was that it only worked if I took it BEFORE the cramps started, once they were there (the cramps) the medicine didn't seem to help. Weird hah? My GI doctor told me that they do cause constipation. Again I never took mine on a daily basis as I can't function that way at work. If I was having a really really bad day with cramping I would take one- but never continually so I don't know personally if over time they do cause constipation. Hope this helps! -------------------- Melissa Pain predominant w/occasional C. Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator
