Taking
Colestipol
which at least usually keeps me from having an accident but goes not help the symptoms of needing to go. They seem to want to find right pills to help me live rather than looking for answers. How do you get the right tests or drs to listen?

When to take Questran or Colestid powder
I am taking one sachet of Questran or Colestid powder (containing colestyramine or
colestipol
hydrochloride respectively) per day to control suspected bile acid malabsorption (I have a cooperative doctor - but I haven't been tested for BAM) and therefore IBS D - and with some success.

Posting this once again to try to get the message out:
It's very expensive, though, so he put me on another one called "
Colestipol
." Did the same thing! I feel free for the first time in YEARS!

BILE ACID MALL ABSORPTION
There is another medication called
COLESTIPOL
but one of the side effects is headache/migraine. Also there is another newer, more easily tolerated medication called : COLESEVELAM but I don't think it is licensed here in the UK.

LEVOTHYROXINE INTERACTIONS - useful list
Similar agents such as
colestipol
(COLESTID) and cholesevelam (WELCHOL) may have the same effect, although there is not as much evidence for this. We recommend separating all of these medications, known as âbile acid binders,â from the taking of levothyroxine by at least four to six hours.

As Questran is off limits for the time being, I spoke to my hepatologist who suggest I can substitute Questran Light, colestipol or
general cholestymamine. I can't guarantee that the spellings are correct! I know what Questran Light is like, has anybody used either of the other two? If so, what comments do you have on taking them?
