: please can u give me alternative ideas on medication and self help for a 9 year old who regularly is sent home from school because of the pai she suffers with IBS
: Any herbal medication suitable for children will be much appreciated.
: From a family who r desperate to help their child
: thankyouHi,
She needs to take a water soluble fiber supplement. I understand Metamucil puts out cookies that have psyllium in them --just drink alot of water. Psyllium is a bulk stool forming agent that is safe and will help regulate bowel movements.
God Bless---Harry
