IBS—not your typical tummy ache. Symptoms may include abdominal bloating and soreness, wind, alternating diarrhoea and constipation, backaches, and fatigue. According to research or other evidence, the following self-care steps may be helpful.
  • Try loperamide (Imodium AD) to treat diarrhoea

  • Find the right fibre

    Try different fibre sources, including high-fibre foods such as linseed, rye, brown rice, porridge, barley, and vegetables, as well as bulk-forming laxatives like psyllium husk and methylcellulose, to find the right balance of regularity without episodes of diarrhoea

  • Avoid problem foods

    Experiment with limiting dairy products and beans, as well as foods containing caffeine, fructose, or sorbitol, to see which restrictions may help reduce your symptoms

  • Try peppermint and caraway oils

    Taking a coated herbal supplement providing 0.2 to 0.4 ml of peppermint oil, preferably combined with 50 mg of caraway oil, three times a day may reduce wind production, ease intestinal cramping, and soothe the intestinal tract

  • Explore food sensitivities

    Work with a specialist to identify other foods that aggravate your condition

  • Commonly prescribed medicines include tegaserod (Zelnorm) to treat IBS related constipation, hyosciamine (Levsin, Levbid, NuLev) to relieve intestinal cramping, and diphenoxylate/atropine (Lomotil) to treat diarrhoea
