I keep on searching the net for any news. I know there are one or two drugs in the pipeline but can't find any further information. Can someone provide me with links/information?

i don't know what's in the pipeline in germany, where you are. with the exception of the vibrating capsule, the following are in the usa pipeline, just google for more links and info on these---lots of info online.

that vibrating capsule in development in israel (not in usa pipeline AFAIK) :

Vibrant approved by FDA Feb of 23. Your doctor has to send prescription directly to company. I paid $89 for activator and 20 pills. It has worked everyday!!! I have burned thru all prescriptions and over the counter and supplements to no avail. I just did refill for 20 pills $25!! 🙏🏼

Vibrating capsules?!? I could just see when it passes my prostrate, and me having having multi-orgasms, all while doing something like praying in church.

"What's that?!?"

"Ut-oh!" (Hey-now!) lol!!!

oh Flossy--too funny!

right after the news of this magic pill came out last year, steven colbert had a wildly funny sketch on his show about it. he called this his "number one story--or raher number "two story" that night and he advised that rather than use this pill, just put your cell phone on vibrate and put it up your butt lol and then call yourself....gives new meaning to the phrase "the call to stool"....

his sketch is in this show, right after the beginning (one minute 12 seconds into it)

glad you are trying resolor and that it's helping a little but sorry it isn't the whole solution for you. if you're taking the 1 mg, try 2 mg dose.

I've read some people take resolor with miralax (movicol) or some other osmotic laxative or a stool softener or even magnesium (tablets or natural calm etc) and it works better for them that way. the osmotic helps soften things up and the resolor pushes it out.

I've also heard a few people say that resolor can take two or three weeks to get into your system and start to work fully...but, then, we're all so different in how meds work on us..

yes, it's a lot of experimentation and trial and error, isn't it. and oh yes--hope springs eternal! if it wasn't for hope--and faith--i'd have nothing. keeps me going.

keeping you in my prayers!

linzess news:

a new and supposedly better formula of linaclotide (linzess) is in the pipeline--linaclotide colonic release-1 (CR1). looks like it's supposed to be better for abdominal pain relief.

Trulance has just become available although not all pharmacies have it in yet.

the synergy pharma reps will also be distributing free one week sample packs to gastroenterologists for their patients to try.

there is a savings coupon for Trulance on the synergy website.
