Is Bentyl Safe To Be Taken For Constipation While Having IBS?
Yes. My irritable bowel syndrome has become intense for days: clamped bowel, no urge to go, and pain that has become intense in the last 24 hours. But I take Linzess every other day and get some yield. I also took a Bentyl tonight. Are these drugs safe or worsening to take?
