Chlordiazepoxide / clidinium for Irritable Bowel Syndrome "I've had irritable bowel syndrome since the 1960s. Librax (started about 1992) stops the spasms that create diarrhea. It also relaxes the gut when it knots up and made me constipated at times. I used to live in clinics, be doubled up with pain, covered with sweat, and on a highly restricted diet. After 15 years, I can have a cup of coffee in the morning. I can eat dry cereals, eggs, and bacon. I hike, can wear light-colored pants, sample most foods. I still can't handle sugar, but I can nibble on fries or a salad, eat an occasional apple or peach. Now my problem is continually getting scripts for Librax because I seem normal. I have real fear about not getting Librax and ending up sicker than a dog."

For Irritable Bowel Syndrome "OMG. You name it. Bloating, in the stomach area right under my rib, there was burning, extreme pain & discomfort. It was tender to the touch. There was a tightness & feeling of fullness in that area. I was fatigued. Then came severe stomach cramps throughout my abdominal area. It felt like my entire torso was cramped up bad. Very uncomfortable & painful. It jeopardized my job. Many mornings the pain & cramps were so bad I could not go to work. Diarrhea, constipation, defecating all types of colors, textures, and consistencies. Absolutely horrible. First, I was given pantoprazole, acid reducer, and Bentyl, stomach muscle relaxer, which did absolutely nothing. Then Chlordiazepoxide/Clidinium, which solved my problem. My prayers were answered. It's a magic pill."

Chlordiazepoxide / clidinium for Irritable Bowel Syndrome "I was suffering from IBS for almost 8 years and didn't know what it was. I lost the quality of my life for years, having stomach pain, cramps, bloating, constipation followed by non-continuous diarrhea. I was desperate and hopeless when one doctor prescribed me this medicine, it really changed my life. I felt like I had never had any stomach problems. This medicine is amazing. I can't find it now from where I live, which is Cambodia, but I want to give a try to one of these other medicines on the list. Hope they'll work like Librax worked for me. Thanks."
