Peppermint caps Vs. Dicyclomine       07/14/10 04:36 PM Edit Reply Quote ELF Reged: 06/05/10 Posts: 17 Loc: Kansas City, MO I currently take dicyclomine (I alternate between 10mg. and 20mg.) which works, but I'm worried about taking it too much and it losing its effectiveness, as I have read on here. My question is, do the peppermint caps help with the same issues the dicyclomine does? My main issues are loud bowel sounds and gas, I presume are caused by spasms. I'm reluctant to try them because I get heartburn frequently and because I haven't had luck with the fennel tea, and only minimal relief with the fiber. The money I spend on food and supplements now is starting to be considerable, so any help would be appreciated! -------------------- IBS-D since 12/2009 Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator
