Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards | !But there's a brilliant supplement in the UK!!!

I'm getting all excited because for once I have some useful advice to give!

Please try out Celevac (company name's Shire) Available at your local chemist! It's made out of Methylcellulose, very soothing and absolutely non-bloating (contains very small amount of lactose). Small tablets, pink, like polystyrene with a taste of strawberry, but you get used to them. Last June Celevac really saved my life. I was in bed by then, because I was getting so weak, unable to eat anything at all anymore because of the constant cramping, when my GP prescribed these to me. I will NEVER ever forget the soothing feeling spreading in my bowels, just 20 minutes after chewing the first two. Utter, total, peace. This supplement alone basically made me better within two weeks. You can get them over the counter (�4.50 for 112 tablets), too, but of course it's cheaper for you if the NHS pays half of the price....

As to dosage, I used to take 8 per day, spread out. Now I'm only taking two before breakfast because I'm quite okay with Psyllium now, which after all seems to be a bit stronger and less expensive, because I'm in Germany now and would need my UK friends to send them to me. But they are ideal to take when travelling or just before a meal.

Good luck
