Comment:
Equalactin was the only thing that worked for me. Why did they stop carrying it in stores? Fibercon is supposed to be the same stuff and doesn't work nearly as well. Loperimide caused gallbladder issues.

Comment:
Have used 15 years. It has been the only thing to help with my IBS. My symptoms are pain and usually diarrhea (sometimes constipation). I only take it when have a flair-up. I wish brick-and-mortar stores would carry it again.

This has been my go-to when my IBS really acts up for years now. No side effects for me. It helps without cramping, bloating, etc. Problem is you can't go buy it in a store anymore!

I was prescribed Equalactin for severe IBS and it is the only thing that has consistently worked over many years. I am very happy to have found it.
