Apologies if this has been asked before, I saw an ad for Senocalm tablets for IBS , can I  ask if anyone has had experience of  taking it? 

did it help ?   any poor experiences?

I'm new to this forum and wondered if there was anything else I could take for IBS symptoms?

 many thanks

Cormac

    You may try peppermint oil capsules, I have heard a lot of great things about them. I ordered a bottle but they haven't arrived yet. If you try them though they need to be enteric coated to get through the stomach, and just follow directions to keep the heartburn risk down.

    Hi Cormac if you speak to your chemist they may be able to advise you what you could try, depending on the type of IBS you have. When my IBS is causing problems I do just this and it helps.
