What conventional prescription medications are used to treat IBS?

Answered By Editor


There are also some conventional medications that are used to eliminate or at least reduce the symptoms of IBS. Below are some of the conventional prescription medications that you can refer:

Anti-spasmodic

* This includes drugs such as Bentyl and Levsin. It results to a significant change in curing abdominal pain of IBS patients.

Antacids

* Like the first medication it also aids in lowering abdominal pain.

Anti-diarrhea drugs

* Loperamide and immodium are the common drugs for this category. It relieves in curing the symptom but not totally the IBS.

Anti-depressants and muscle relaxant drugs also take the role of alleviating the symptoms of Irritable Bowel Syndrome.
