This is the best pill in the world!!!!!!!!!! The pill does make you a little drowsy then it goes away and you feel calm all over. I have been on this pill for three weeks and I am starting to eat regular meals. I feel great again. Published: September 30, 2007 ::

This is a miracle pill for me! I have been on 3 weeks, feel great no more pain, no more anxiety. Only thing is that I can't stay awake, keeps me very drowsy., and dry mouth. Doctor said to stick with it the symptoms will decrease over time. Published: November 08, 2007 ::

I have been using bentyl for many years for irritable bowel syndrome. It has made me feel so much better, along with knowing what foods irritate me. Smaller portions of food has helped also. Published: April 26, 2009 ::

Comment from: KP, 19-24 Female on Treatment for less than 1 month (Patient)

I have to say, I am 23 years old and was primarily confined to my home. Since I have been taking this medication, the cramps and abdominal pains have subsided, yet this is the third day of taking it and the urgency is still kind of there. Otherwise I am so thankful to have a knowlegdable doctor to know the symptons and prescribe a good drug. Highly recommend Published: January 21, 2009 ::

I was starting to miss work because of my severe IBS. This is the first thing that has worked consistently for me. I haven't had a stomach ache, cramping, diarrhea, constipation... absolutely no stomach issues in 2 weeks. It is amazing! I have some trouble remembering to take the meds, four times a day is alot. I am also bloated more than normal and sleepier than usual. No other side effects to report, no g.i. symptoms either. Published: January 25, 2008 ::

Comment from: 19-24 Female on Treatment for less than 1 month (Patient)

This is a great medicine. Within 30 minutes, my stomach felt great and had no pain or cramping. Made me a little dizzy at first, but after a few days it stopped. I only take it 2x a day and it works great. Published: November 11, 2007 ::

Comment from: mommyz71999, 25-34 Female on Treatment for less than 1 month (Patient)

I have been having upper abdominal problems for over 2 months now. I have even been to a GI DR. They ran many tests and they have all came out normal. I was also treated with narcotic pain meds and all thedid was make me feel worse. Finally I went into the ER and the found it was Gastritis. They gave me this medicine and a GI coctail. I have to say that since I have been on this medicine I have been feeling much better. 2 thumbsup to the person who invented this drug! Published: May 01, 2008 ::
