I have D-IBS (cramping/diarrhea/gas/pain). My dr. prescribed Bentyl to be taken on a daily basis (1/2 tablet 2 to 3 times daily). Does anyone know if it is safe to take it daily long term? My dr. said to do it yet the pharmacist seemed hesitant on saying long term use was okay. It has helped with the cramping and I seem to be a little constipated. Anyone have any info?
