Experiences with

Colofac

Is there a shortage in the UK can't seem to find it in pharmacy

Spasmonal instead of colofac

can someone advise ? Should I stop dairy & alcohol - not easy at Christmas

on long term steroids and Montelukast and now Alendronic Acid tablets my IBS D. has come back with a vengeance given Colofac as I have glaucoma in both eyes, I feel this has made my IBS worse with pains and constant diarrhea. Anyone any suggestions Dr not really interested.

Hi Gracie i would suggest Digestive Enzymes. Take them before main meals.

I am having stomachs ache everyday and all day.Taking colofac before a meal but not really helping.Can anyone recommend something I can take.Thankyou.

Does anyone here take Merbeverine/Colofac for IBS? I started taking it yesterday and noticed a rise in my heart rate. Nothing dangerously high but high for me. The side effects leaflet doesnt suggest any change. Can anyone let me know their experience please?

I get on and off terrible workings of the tummy especially diring very stressful times and i take probiotics and Bevispas or Colofac. It helps a lot. Please consider them. Nice to chat with you.

GP just treating me for IBS with Buscopan and cyclizine and colofac . Can you please advise anyone I could get help from? Thanks 🙏🏾

I’ve tried colofac which seemed to help a little but thinking of trying something else as well anyone had probiotics or colpermin? And can you take Imodium with them as well? Thanks

I have managed without anything since then, as Colofac was the only alternative (I had tried all the other options!). Now, every three or four weeks, I have a terrible time with quite serious impaction (hard, dry, enormous motion) and fear I cannot take much more!

Has anyone tried this. Been taking it two days and doesn’t seem to help. In fact I think the pain is worse.

I’ve taken Colofac but it’s says don’t take over 40 yrs old with out doctors advice 🤦🏼‍♀️ Any advice on easing the bloat & releasing the wind? I’m literally crying

I had tried peppermint capsules and Mebeverine (Colofac) and they did nothing.

I have tablets COLOFAC and I will take probiotics but it will take up to a week to improve.

The pharmacies say they can only get hold of the branded, much more expensive Colofac tablets, which they can only prescribe if my GP reissues the prescription. The GP practice is currently refusing to reissue a prescription for Colofac. Thanks

years.I am currently going through a flare up and feeling miserable and lost.I have found it easier even though I know it’s not correct but not to eat at all.My stomach seems to prefer having absolutely nothing.I suffer from nausea and cramps daily.I saw the doctor two days ago and he has put me on Colofac

Recently got a bad flare up with Ibs after having a large bread roll with a meal out, normally have Colofac, but not cutting it this time,so I’m taking Buscopan it’s ovet 7 hrs since I took a doseis it safe to take my 10 mg dose of amitriptilyne

I’m thinking of trying Colofac as peppermint capsules don’t seem to help. Anyone found Colofac helpful?

Nothing seems to help the pain I’ve tried strong painkillers like panadeine forte and endone and also buscopan, colese and colofac. Sometimes a heat pack or hot bath takes the edge off but not always and gps and gastro specialists can’t seem to help me!
