The symptoms of IBS improve by themselves over time for most people. There are also many possible options for treatment or symptom relief. But there is still no treatment that has been found to definitely help most people with IBS. Some people have only (or mostly) constipation, some only (or mostly) diarrhoea, and others have both problems at once. Since the problem is not the same for everyone, there is also no one treatment that works for most people.
This makes the choice of treatment for people with IBS something of an experiment. One of the choices is anti-cramping medications, called anti-spasmodics. These might be able to help the bowel muscles relax and so help relieve cramps.
Further options might be able to prevent constipation and avoid some of the triggers for IBS. But there is not yet enough evidence to show whether or not they are likely to help. These include:
Fibre supplements and so-called bulking agents
Avoiding emotional stress
Probiotic dairy products, such as yoghurt
Complementary therapies like peppermint oil
Exercise
There are some other medications that can be used for IBS, but more evidence is needed to be sure about their effectiveness and adverse effects. This includes antidepressants. While these might help relieve IBS for some people, they can have serious adverse effects. They are not approved for use for IBS in some countries, including Germany.
It might help to observe what seems to trigger IBS symptoms for you personally. For example, is there something in your diet that makes it worse, which you could then avoid eating? Are your symptoms getting worse at times of stress? Can you find ways to reduce stress in your life?
yes liberex is good helps regulate you but be careful what you eat caffeine greasy foods all aggravate it. also there are different types go to the doctor
