Levsin doesn't do much for me, its suppose to help relax your colon but I have to take like 4-5 of them to notice any improvement and than the side effects you mentioned are awful! There are other drugs in the same catagory you could try. I took Zelnorm for about 2 months. It is completey different in that it does something to the seratonine(sp?) receptors and is suppose to regulate the movements of the colon, they have a web site if you do a google search. It worked ok for a few weeks than completey stopped working for me. There have been a lot of talk about Zelnorm if you do a broad search on it, you could read what everyone has posted. I think most peoples reaction was similar to mine. I currently take Mira-Lax for my constipation.
