About this listen

Starting a new IBS-C treatment can bring a mix of hope and uncertainty. How soon will it work? What if side effects appear? Should you keep going or call your doctor?

Host Jacqueline Gaulin sits down with Dr. Brian Lacy, gastroenterologist at Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville, FL, to answer the real questions patients ask when starting treatment.

In this episode, we discuss:
• What patients can realistically expect in the first days and weeks of treatment
• What "feeling better" truly means for each individual
• Common challenges and side effects patients may experience
• How to stay encouraged and avoid stopping treatment too soon without consulting your doctor

Relief takes time—and you're not alone on this journey.

This episode is made possible with support from Ardelyx.
