Efficacy and Safety of Peppermint Oil in a Randomized, Double-Blind Trial of Patients With Irritable Bowel Syndrome Peppermint oil is frequently used to treat irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), despite a lack of evidence for efficacy from high-quality controlled trials. We studied the efficacy and safety of small-intestinal-release peppermint oil in patients with IBS and explored the effects of targeted ileocolonic-release peppermint oil.We performed a double-blind trial of 190 patients with IBS (...) (according to Rome IV criteria) at 4 hospitals in The Netherlands from August 2016 through March 2018; 189 patients were included in the intent-to-treat analysis (mean age, 34.0 years; 77.8% female; 57.7% in primary care), and 178 completed the study. Patients were randomly assigned to groups given 182 mg small-intestinal-release peppermint oil, 182 mg ileocolonic-release peppermint oil, or placebo for 8 weeks. The primary endpoint was abdominal pain response, as defined by the US Food and Drug

January 20, 2020 But I am not Depressed: Antidepressants for Irritable Bowel Syndrome Clinical Question: Do antidepressant medications improve irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) symptoms? Bottom Line: Both tricyclic antidepressants (TCAs) and selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) may improve overall IBS symptoms. About 55% of patients treated with TCAs or SSRIs will benefit compared to ~35% with placebo. Only TCAs improve abdominal pain for ~60% of patients compared to ~30% with placebo. TCA

[Effect of healthy eating before intervention with a low FODMAP diet in pediatric patients with irritable bowel syndrome]. Background: a diet low in fermentable oligosaccharides, disaccharides, monosaccharides and polyols (FODMAP) may be effective in the treatment of pediatric patients with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Its complexity and side effects make it a secondary therapeutic alternative. Objective: to demonstrate that nutritional education, aimed at optimizing the diet of children (...) with IBS, is able to improve gastrointestinal symptoms of children without following a diet low in FODMAP. Methods: prospective intervention study. Changes in gastrointestinal symptoms were analyzed by means of the Pediatric Quality of Life Inventory™ Gastrointestinal Symptoms (PedsQL™ GI Symptoms), after receiving nutritional education based on a healthy diet. Likewise, anthropometric changes and dietary habits were analyzed. Results: twenty-one patients were included (12 girls) with a mean age

Efficacy and Safety of Eluxadoline in Patients With Irritable Bowel Syndrome With Diarrhea Who Report Inadequate Symptom Control With Loperamide: RELIEF Phase 4 Study Irritable bowel syndrome with diarrhea (IBS-D) is a functional gastrointestinal disorder with limited effective treatment options. We evaluated the efficacy and safety of eluxadoline in patients with IBS-D who reported inadequate symptom control with prior loperamide.Three hundred forty-six adults with IBS-D (Rome III criteria (...) ) were randomly assigned to placebo or eluxadoline 100 mg twice daily for 12 weeks. Patients recorded daily IBS-D symptoms, including worst abdominal pain (WAP) and stool consistency (through Bristol Stool Scale). The primary endpoint was proportion of composite responders, defined as patients who met daily composite response criteria (≥40% WAP improvement and <5 Bristol Stool Scale score) for at least 50% of treatment days, and recorded ≥60 days of diary entries over the 12-week period.Over 12 weeks
