WELCOME TO DIFFERENT.
IBSRELA is a prescription medication that works differently to relieve the constipation, belly pain, and bloating in adults with irritable bowel syndrome with constipation (IBS-C).
Different matters:
Because one size does not fit all.
Not when it comes to shoes.
And not when it comes to medications for IBS-C.
You may have to try different medications that work in different ways to find the one that’s right for you.
COULD IBSRELA BE RIGHT FOR YOU?
Ask your healthcare provider about IBSRELA.

ON SCREEN/SUPER: Suzanne
Retired nurse, living with IBS-C
Suzanne VO:
IBS-C very much impacted my ability to live my life.
I used to go 14-15 days without a bowel movement–and I had terrible cramping and bloating. I love to go camping with my husband–and now that we are retired, we have plenty of time to do so. But I didn’t want to leave the house just in case I got the urge to go to the bathroom.
And the abdominal pain and bloating were so bad–I really didn’t feel like doing much of anything. I went to multiple healthcare providers before finding one that was able to find the right medication for me.
