Last year I had a hemmhroidectomy (sp?) as a result of my diarrhea/constipation. Now, not only do I have probs with the IBS, I have severe intestinal gas. I have tried Phazyme, GasX...to no avail. Any suggestions? Hi SM, One of the best things for gas in the colon is peppermint oil but it has to be enteric coated so that it does not dissolve in your stomach or it won't work.The only brand that I know of like this is put out by Enzymatic Therapy and it's called Peppermint Plus.Some other company may put one out but I don't know their name and I have looked and called some companies.
