"Any other medicine for constipation triggers my colitis. IBSRELA is the only one that makes me go without pain, cold sweat, and cramps. Unfortunately, IBSRELA is not on my insurance list. I am glad my doctor gave me some samples to try. I highly recommend."

"I have had a life-changing experience with Ibsrela. Unlike any of the other drugs for slow transit constipation and IBS-C that I've tried, without efficacy, I must add, Ibsrela continues to be effective; daily, weekly, monthly, etc... All the others I've had experience with - Zelnorm, Trulance, Amitiza, and Linzess - stopped working after taking them only for a short amount of time. I highly recommend Ibsrela. I did not have to go through insurance at all since I was among the first patients among my GI specialist's patients in a trial at Cleveland Clinic for Ardelyx, which is the pharmaceutical company that makes Ibsrela."

"I have been taking this med for about a month for IBS-C. This is after I've been on basically everything else on the market, all of which eventually failed me for one reason or another. Anyhow, this med causes me diarrhea. A lot, and often. It was at its worst the first two weeks. Not ideal, but better than never going at all. Aside from that, no side effects whatsoever. I'll probably have to supplement with some sort of soluble fiber to calm the runs a bit, but overall, I think Ibsrela is worth a try. Just be sure to drink plenty of water, and possibly some Gatorade or something to help with electrolytes."
