IBS-C Levsin or Bentyl?

I have both Levsin and Bentyl. If you have IBS-C, do you find one works better than another? What dose do you take? I have 0.125 Levsin and 20mg Bentyl. I don’t take both at the same time. Just wondering what your experience is with these pills.

I have found that the antispasmodic meds made my constipation worse. They slow the gut down, not something I need at the moment.
