Have you been given a bile sequestrant to take?

Right now I take Hyoscyamine for IBS so far it's working good.

So am I right in thinking this is an anti-spasmodic?

in reply toMaureen1958

I watch what I eat to sometimes

So you are managing your Bile Acid Diarrheoa okay with the Hyoscyamine and watching what you eat. Thats good then.

Lol sometimes I sneak something I'm not supposed to eat but I pay for it 😊 anyway I eat skinless chicken breast and rice and sometimes boiled potatoes or peas and carrots
