can anyone help me? Im taking 10mg Amitryptiline but i just realized there is also Lactose. I get cramps after taking it and ive had soft bowels lately and cannot figure out why. I was taking 10mg Amitryptiline before and everything was fine then i stopped for 2 weeks cos i had no time to go to doctor for me and this is whats happening now. I never noticed there was lactose before tho. Is Amitryptiline not safe for us with IBS due to having Lactose in it? I was thinking of taking Citalopram instead because Ive heard its better for people with IBS. but i dont know!! im also very anxious person but i feel embarrassed to tell my doctor cos he looks at me like im making IBS up. Can anyone please help me????? Whats the best thing to take for anxiety and IBS?? I dont know and need some advice. thank you
