For IBS with depression there is a specific combination of medication which works. The doctor has tried regular antidepressants which though are good, for some may not improve well, and as you said may have tolerability issues. Consult an astute psychiatrist online or in person. Good luck.

No, prothiadin will not help you much, it will increase your constipation. I would be interested to know more about the side effects of other medications which you have previously used
