Simethicone
Been having problems due to Pelvic Floor Dysfunction. Whilst it’s improved a little bit in the last few days I’m finding that trapped gas first thing when waking is an issue. I was looking at Simethicone and whether that or Deflatine would help me. I’ve got afib and on regular medication (flec and bisoprolol

Alverine and/or Simalvia - (which is alverine citrate with simethicone.) Side effects.
I have recently been put on these. I have found that both the standard alverine citrate, which I had tried first, now the Simalvia, cause feelings of extreme anxiety about an hour after taking the tablet! Weird and not listed in the side effects. So far it seems ineffective on the pain anyway. Would

Endocrine Disruptors PBDEs Reduce T4 to T3 Conversion in the Brain
This study https://pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs.chemrestox.5b00072 shows that PBDE flame retardants reduce type 2 deiodinase (DIO2) expression and activity in human brain cells. T4 enters the brain where it is converted to T3 in glial cells which then supply neurons with T3. This study shows PBDEs

struggling!!
Hi everyone, I hope you’re all doing ok. I’m hoping that someone will listen to me and offer a bit of empathy. I only have my husband to talk to and he’s good but he really doesn’t get it. I’ve had IBS for many years but was formally diagnosed about ten years ago. For me it can be constipation or diarrhoea

Can probiotics ease diarrhoea and daily loose stools?
I have tried so, so many things over the years to help my IBS. I am low fodmap, dairy free and am very careful with my food and drink intake, listen to gut directed hypnotherapy, exercise, I drink mint tea, have peppermint capsules, Imodium, mebeverine, alverine etc. But not much helps. The daily

Shortage of Simethicone?
Hi, I have found that over my years of experimenting with what works for my horrible bloating and gas that Simethicone is the only thing that works for me! However over the past year I have been struggling to find any OTC medications with it in! I began using Senocalm which then became unavailable everywhere

50% improvement
I understand we are all different, but for me Alverine Citrate has reduced my IBS symptoms by 50% e.g. diarrhoea, bloating and “eggy burps”.

A bit disheartened and confused
A little over 2 years ago at age 36 I experienced the first of what I came to find out was an Afib episode (of course, not until after being told I was just having panic attacks by some very unhelpful ER personnel). This was about a week after a doctor had prescribed me rizatriptan for headaches (

First Capsule Endoscopy
I got there at 6:30am, swallowed the pillcam at 8:10am with 0.6g simethicone, was fitted with patches, records for 8 hours so it will end around 3:30-4pm. I have a paper to note “eating, drinking, and unusual sensations.” I am feeling a lot of pain in general, so, I am a bit nervous for what qualifies

Does Buscopan ease gurgling/growling guts?
I tried Buscopan a few years back. I only used it the once as my fingertips went numb and it put me off. However, it did seem to settle my tummy within 15 mins or so. I am having such a gurgling and growling digestive system and nothing like low fodmap, peppermint or simethicone seem to ease it. I thought
