October 13, 2025Oct 13 comment_104133 The impact of IBS-C is realLiving with Irritable Bowel Syndrome with Constipation (IBS-C) can be difficult. The symptoms of abdominal pain, bloating, and constipation can be bothersome and can make it challenging to fully participate in daily activities. Options availableDid you know there are multiple prescription medications available to treat IBS-C? You may have taken one in the past or are currently taking one. What's great is that these medications offer a range of solutions, and they don't all work the same for each individual patient.Be empowered to ask for something different. If the prescription you are taking for IBS-C isn't giving you the symptom relief you had hoped for, you can and should talk to your doctor about trying a different medication. Remember, what works for some may not work for others! So it's worth giving another medication a try to try and get relief from IBS-C. It may take some time, but could be worth it in the end.It's important we hear from you so that we can better understand your experience with IBS-C and what treatments you may have triedClick here to complete the short surveyWe've partnered with Ardelyx, Inc., a pharmaceutical manufacturer, to conduct this survey. You may have taken part in a similar survey last year, which was very helpful in shaping our understanding of life with IBS-C. This year's survey is different - it focuses on IBS-C treatments and how they impact patients. Participation is voluntary, and your responses will be shared with Ardelyx. They will be kept confidential and only reported in aggregate (never linked to you personally). Report
