Works for Me March 28, 2008 4 out of 4 found this comment useful.
I went through a lot of different "home treatments" and nothing seemed to really work for my IBS-D. I began taking this about 10 months ago, and although I was doing better, I still had episodes about three-four times a month. I went to see a doctor about six months ago who recommended adding Metamucil (or some type of fiber) to the mix. I really didn't think it would help -- after all, I wasn't exactly having trouble going, the frequency and pain associated with it were the problem. Anyway, I bought the Metamucil capsules (not the chewable ones, the pills) and started taking two of those with the Digestive Advantage every day. Somehow the combination of the two has worked wonders for me. I went several months without having any kind of diarrhea, and in the six months I've been using this combo of medications, I have probably only had diarrhea two or three times. Basically, it's happened so little I don't even really remember when I have it. For lack of a better way to describe this, I think it has "cured" my IBS-D. If this has worked for me, maybe it will work for others.

I have used Digestive Advantage IBS for years. Buying it at the local stores & I love it!!!!! So, I was so happy to find it at Amazon cheap & w/ free S&H if you picked the auto ship method. When I received my order I knew the pills looked different than the pills I had been purchasing from the store. I just figured they had the new pills, I had seen on the box. I have been taking these pills for over a month & I noticed my symptoms have returned. On 03/09/08 I decided to buy some from the local store & compare the ingredients & they are different. So on 03/10/08 I canceled my auto ship.
Takes care of my IBS AND my Psoriasis!!! March 10, 2008 5 out of 5 found this comment useful.
A few years back, I started getting these bouts of sudden diarrhea right after eating. At first I thought it was food poisoning, but when it kept happening, I realized it wasn't my favorite Chinese restaurant, it was me. In fact, it was so bad that I had to leave work early a few times. I was honest with my supervisor with what was happening so I was excused, but still very embarrassing and unpleasant. But If you're reading this, you very well may already suffer from IBS so you know what I'm talking about.
Concurrently, I was also having a problem with psoriasis and eczema on my hands. My fingers would crack and bleed, uncontrollably, and this too caused problems. People were afraid I had some contagious disease! And I was working a retail job, so I was interacting with people and merchandise all day, for which this caused many problems. I had seen a dermatologist for this, and at one point they had put me on Soriatane, which is a very expensive, potent medication. You also had to go in for blood tests regularly because of the damage it could do to your liver, etc. While it DID clear up my hands completely, it also caused my lips to be chapped constantly, so in a strange way it was a trade-off. Loss of insurance (and a lack of Chap-Stick!) made me go off the medication eventually. The problem returned immediately thereafter.
Back to the IBS. . .So one day I was shopping at Costco and suddenly had an IBS attack. As fate would have it, just as I was leaving the restroom thinking "I've got to do something about this!," I made eye contact with a box of these Digestive Advantage IBS tablets. (This is where the love at first sight music would start if this were a movie.)
Needless to say, after only a few days of taking these (I take 2 daily) I noticed that not only did I not suffer from IBS, but the psoriasis and exema on my hands cleared up also!! Since that part had always been somewhat cyclical, I just figured it was a coincidence. But my hands stayed clear. Could it be these tablets helping with that also? After about a month I decided to stop taking them and sure enough, not only did the IBS issues return, but so did my psoriasis. Back on these, and it cleared up again! So for me, this really has been a miracle product. My dermatologist was baffled as to how this could work better than a $200 per month prescription drug, but nevertheless happy for me.
Since I've signed up for the Automatic Shipments from Amazon, which with the free shipping, are cheaper to have them delivered than driving to my local big warehouse store where I was buying these before.
I've sung the praises of these to family and friends to the point that they probably wish I'd shut up about it already, but I'd give these 10 stars if I could, it really has worked that well for me!
UPDATE AUGUST 2008: I've been taking this daily now for a couple of years, and I still have absolutely no cracking or bleeding of my hands. It has kept them clear consistently the entire time and I am still absolutely thrilled with this stuff. THANK YOU GANEDEN!!

IBS - Symtoms relieved February 24, 2008 This is the only thing that has helped relieve the painful bowel cramping and pain that my daughter has suffered from for four years. She has been using for three months (she started with the tablets but likes the caplets better) and has only two minor bouts of pain after four years of doctors visits and chronic pain. She would recommend it to any one suffering the same symptoms.
