I have gone through your question, I understand your concern.
As you already may be knowing, that in ibs you may have occasional episodes of frequent bowel movements, so do not worry
Start cap darolac 3 times daily for 14 days, you will be alright. Continue normaxin and dont use laxatives.
I hope your query is clear now.
