Irritable Bowel Syndrome
"I have suffered my entire life with IBS-C. Like many other people,  I have been to several specialists,  increased fiber, water and taken several types of laxatives.  My best experience with prescription medication has been with Zelnorm.  Linzess is comparable in that it helps me have a bowel motion without cramping and I do feel evacuation is complete.  HOWEVER, I will add that the bloating is horrible which is a problem initially.  Zelnorm did not make me feel that way.  My stomach was flat,  I felt amazing.  The upside to Linzess is that it works and I&#039;ll take diarrhea over miserable constipation any day.  I only take the minimum dose once a week and I make sure it&#039;s on a day I&#039;m not going to leave the house.  I won&#039;t take this every day."
