Suggest Alternative Medication For IBS
Diarrhea every hour, food particles, watery, dark and light, stomach pain all day and can’t eat, shivers and flu feeling, no fever, dizzy and disorientated, dehydration, confusion, nausea, indigestion, burping, gas, fluctuant, this has been about every 4 days for a year. My MD told me I have IBS, and to take over the counter meds, they have not helped. I am unable to function, unable to work, unable to continue like this.

Hello,
Drugs like lactobacillus will be helpful. Consult a gastroenterologist and get evaluated. A colonoscopy may be required to rule out other causes that will present with similar symptoms.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Shinas Hussain, General & Family Physician
