Irritable Bowel Syndrome: What Treatments Really Work.
Medical Clinics of North America 2019 January
Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is present in patients with symptoms of chronic abdominal pain and altered bowel habits but no identifiable organic etiology. Rome IV classification groups patients based on predominant stool pattern. Low-FODMAP diets have been helpful in providing symptom relief, as have cognitive behavioral and mind-body techniques that help patients manage symptoms. Targeted symptomatic relief for the patient's predominant symptoms provides relief in addition to effective older medications that are inexpensive and reliable.
