Note:

AMITIZAŽ is the only prescription medicine approved by the FDA to treat adults with IBS-C and Chronic Idiopathic Constipation in women 18 years of age and older. "Idiopathic" simply means the cause of the constipation is not known and not due to an underlying illness or medication.

AMITIZA is not for everyone. If you know you have a bowel obstruction, do not take AMITIZA.

ZELNORM is no longer approved for IBS-C or chronic constipation. In the U.S. access may be available under a special FDA emergency program. More information on this protocol can be found here.

Ironwood Pharmaceuticals announced that an FDA Advisory Committee Meeting will not be scheduled in connection with their new drug application for Linaclotide for IBS-C. We will know in June whether the drug will be approved for use in the US.

Well here's hoping! Fingers crossed!
Please remember this is a group of folks seeking support on how to live with and manage IBS. THESE ARE ONLY MY OWN THOUGHTS. IF YOU WANT AN EXPERT OPINION, ASK A MEDICAL PROFESSIONAL.
