Medicines for IBS/Indigestion

2023-03-26 04:28:33
Have symptoms for IBS. Have been prescribed Normaxin and Rifagut 400 mg. Also suffering from chronic anaemia with Hb around 6. 1. Is Normaxin still available? See most of apps not selling anymore. If it is discontinued, are there any alternatives available? 2. Are both these medicines habit forming and are there any major long lasting side effects?
