Low FODMAP diet:
The low-FODMAP diet is a short-term eating plan where you avoid foods that are high in FODMAPs. This is to see if your irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) symptoms improve. Following a low-FODMAP diet improves symptoms for three out of four people with IBS. A useful resource on low FODMAP diet:(https://www.gesa.org.au/public/13/files/Consumer%20Information/Low%20FODMAP%20Diet%202nd%20Ed.pdf)
IBS Treatment (Medications):
1. Antispasmodics: The best evidence for treatment include Cimetropium (Alginor), Peppermint oil, Pinaverium (Dicetel and Eldicet) and Trimebutine. The pain may ease with medication but may not go away completely.
2. Constipation Medication: A medicine called Linaclotide (Linzess) works differently to other medicines for treating constipation. It has been shown to reduce pain, bloating and constipation symptoms.
3. Anti-diarrheal Medication: Loperamide (Imodium) may be useful if diarrhea is the main symptom.
4. Anti-bloating: Peppermint Oil
5. Anti-depressant Medications: A Tricyclic antidepresaant at low dose, eg Amitriptyline is sometimes used to treat IBS. They help with the pain of IBS. SSRI antidepressant medicines eg Fluoxetine are also used for IBS.
