COMMON ALLOPATHIC TREATMENTS
(mainstream treatments)
The most commonly prescribed drugs for IBS include laxatives, antibiotics, anti- diarrhoeals and anti-depressants.
All of these drugs may provide some temporary relief of symptoms but none offer a long term solution by way of treating the actual cause of the problem. The long-term dietary habits, general gut/digestive health and mental status may not have been resolved. These need to be nurtured.

This is when natural herbal solutions come into their own.
