Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards

Hi Kelly,

I have been taking Librax for several years. It has helped me tremendously because a lot of my IBS was brought on by stress. It helps relieve stress and relax the stomach. My stomach was always tied up in knots after I ate. I started taking 3 a day 30 min before meals. I went down to 2 a day about 1 yr ago. I am trying to go to 1 a day but lately my stress level has been through the roof so I am sticking to 2 a day for now.

I never had a problem driving but I know it can affect people differently. If I were you, I would start taking it on a day when you don't have to be anywhere and see how you feel. If you do feel a little fuzzy that will probably go away as you system adjusts. It can be addicting but I haven't had any problem dropping from 3 to 2 a day. I think you just have to be very careful if you take it for a lengthy time that you withdraw very slowly. A lot of the people on the boards are on it, too, so maybe you will get some more answers.

Good luck
Barbie
