Levbid/Levsin questions
My doctor gave me Levbid and Levsin for my IBS. I am supposed to take the Levbid twice a day and the Levsin on bad days as needed. I haven't taken the Levsin yet, but the Levbid makes me really tired. Does that effect eventually wear off as your body gets used to the drug?

Re: Levbid/Levsin questions
Good to hear! Hopefully after a few weeks, I won't get so tired on the Levbid. They are the same drug (Levbid and Levsin), just different formulas and doses. I hope it works. HAHA!
