If you suffer from alternating bouts of diarrhea and constipation, if you have abdominal pain, gas and bloating, mucous in the stool - or all of the above - you may have irritable bowel syndrome. It is a widespread condition. As many as one in five adults get it. Over half the people who visit gastroenterologists suffer from IBS. Three out of four sufferers are women.

Treatment
What causes irritable bowel (or irritable bowels) remains unknown. What seems to bring about a flare-up, in people predisposed to the condition, are emotional factors such as stress, anxiety and depression. Most people can treat the problem themselves - by avoiding unnecessary stress, by dietary changes, or by making use of the over-the-counter remedy - widely available at drug stores - Equalactin®. Equalactin® is the only non-prescription medicine formulated, positioned and marketed for irritable bowel symptoms.

Equalactin's active ingredient is calcium polycarbophil, a bulk-forming fiber which helps absorb water in the intestinal tract.

Diarrhea
In the diarrhea phase of irritable bowel, Equalactin® absorbs excess water in the intestines, thereby relieving diarrhea.

Constipation
In the constipation phase, Equalactin® binds water to the hard dry stool, creating bulkier, softer stools that are easier to pass. A change of as little as 10% in the water content of the bowel can make the difference between diarrhea and constipation. Accordingly, Equalactin® can serve as a single, simple remedy for people with alternating bouts of constipation and diarrhea.

Pain
Once normal bowel movements are re-established, abdominal cramping and discomfort usually subside. Thousands of sufferers from irritable bowel symptoms have confirmed the effectiveness of Equalactin®. It's available in pleasant-tasting, easy-to-chew tablets at your drug store.
