What Causes Swelling In The Finger Joints While On Linzess And Miralax?
I have been dx w IBS-C. I was recently put Lissness but it didn t seem to help so I still take miralax everyday. Last weekend I developed swelling in my finger joints and a rash on my legs and hands I stopped taking the medication(lissness) a few days ago but the rash persists.

Hi,
Your symptoms seem to be related to an allergic reaction.
I suggest you stop Linzess and consult your doctor about an alternative medication.
Meanwhile, I suggest you use daily antihistamines such as Levocetirizine.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
