I take Lexapro and one of the side effects listed is constipation. I actually have IBS-A and when I started the Lexapro I took a stool softner to help offset any C - but it really did not seem to be a problem. I also have taken Librax, which is an antispasmodic and a antianxiety one several occasions when I have something coming up. Most recently I took it during my vacation and it does tend to give me constipation. I, like you, have anxiety/panic attacks and when they flair up so does the IBS. It seems to feed off each other till I can get them calmed down.
