So like many of us these days, I have IBS. I take fiber daily, but a little bit more can't hurt. I have been taking these per instructions 1 pill 2x a day. They seem to help because I haven't had to add any extra pill to stop urgent trip to the bathroom. They have no smell or taste which is also good. I do think it'd be good to check with Dr or, at least pharmacist to make sure it won't interact with your current meds. The pills are easy to swallow too. I've had no bad effects from them. I will definitely continue to take them. And if you have a need for probiotics, this is a great supplement. Definitely give it a try, I was a bit skeptical, I've taken different ones in the past. These seem to be better. Not sure why, but they do work.
