Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards | For people taking (or who have taken) Librax

Hey Guys,

I've been on Librax for about two weeks, and sadly have not noticed any improvement over and above the other anti-spasmodic I was taking before (modulon). I have however noticed what I think may be a side-effect...difficulty urinating. For about the last two weeks I have had extreme trouble peeing (not burning like a UTI) just trouble. It just won't come out or takes forever (sorry if this is TMI). Well, the doctors of course just tested me for a UTI or kidney infection, even though I told them I'd had both before and that it didn't feel like that.

So, I looked up librax today and noticed that difficulty urinating is one of the side effects and a light bulb went off to to speak

And I figure since I don't appear to be getting any extra benefit from it, I as might as well get off it.

So, couple of questions...first, has anyone else ever had this problem while taking it?

Second, after only two weeks, do you think I would have a lot of trouble coming off it? Because I know you're supposed to get off it gradually. I will obviously be talking to my doctor about that (I see him Monday) just thought I'd get some advice.

Thanks,
Kelly
