Experiences with

Mintec

I already take Mebeverine and Mintec, found some windeeze in the cupboard. I have not had this type of reaction so quickly for quite a while. I think it was the veggie sausages I used it looks like the recipe has changed from when I used to use them. Any further advice on helping the symptoms?

Peppermint oil capsules such as Colpermin, Mintec or Colomint may help relieve abdominal pain and bloating. Laxatives Laxatives work for some people with symptoms of bloating by encouraging the expulsion of faeces and gas.

I was prescribed mintec but find it did nothing but give me minty diarrhoea and I'm trying to cut down on buscopan as trying for a baby. Any ideas as to what it is or how to get rid of it as GP doesn't seem fussed now hes given me the mint pills!

I got prescribed Mintec capsules for my IBS yesterday as I told my doctor I've been having pain in the lower left of my abdomen for a few months now. I thought I had an ovarian cyst or something but she believes it to be my bowel so she's prescribed me these pills to see if my symptoms improve.

I've tried mintec, reine, nexium, endep, all without success, and now on Iberogast (At docs recommendation; nasty stuff!) and it seemed to help then slowly started to not help at all. Inner Health Plus and IBS Support probiotics made me worse...

This has not been mentioned before, so now I have been presecribed Mintec capsules and Mebeverine to try in the meantime aswell as my usual concoction of tramadol and other pain killers... has anyone else had this? Are the two linked? Any advice would be much appreciated!

I am now on Metronidazole 500mg and Cefalexon 500mg plus Mintec (peppermint) capsules not much change yet still feel poorly .Has anyone on here had Mintec and has made tummy pains worse. I have now taken a months Mintec 2x3times a day.I am new to the site.

He then prescribed Mintec capsules for me which contain peppermint oil and they do the trick. They are coated to stop them dissolving before they reach the bowel and this makes them more effective. If you buy peppermint oil capsules over the counter which are not coated they are not as efficient.

I was up for 90 minutes with 6 or 7 episodes. If I lie down thinking it is over, my goodness it starts again. It is as if lying down stretches the gut. Off on a train trip for work tomorrow so will take lopermide tonight. Any ideas? Should I take lopermide before a meal out. Something irritated me and

My blood test results came back this week and it was negative for CD - I'm happy about that, but now I've been given some Mintec tablets for IBS and practically told to get on with it! I was so upset... There was no help there for me at all!!

Taken the usual mediation, Mintec and colafac which usually help, however not much relief with them this time.
