How Can Irritable Bowel Syndrome Be Treated?

I have been diagnosed with IBS-D, however I had my gallbladder removed years ago and have been warned not to take Viberzi. I have heard about Cholestyramine and it s good results, but my doctor is pushing Viberzi. I don t want to take the risk of that drug. Are there any other options for me?

Better to avoid Viberzi as it aggravate the gall bladder related symptoms.
Take following advises:

Oral semiticone for gas problem
Capsule sporolac
Table dicyclomine and mebeverine.
Take more yogurt and butter milk.
Sublingual capsule of folic acid and vitamin B12.
Avoid outside food and alcohol, spicy , fried diets.
Take BRAT diet: banana, applesauce, boiled rice and toast.
Do regular exercise like walking and yoga.
