Hi all,
There is some information on the web regarding Metamucil and IBS (www.metamucil.com - go figure!) and also at www.virginia.edu; in fact, I copied the following blurb from their (University of Virginia) site: Metamucil is the great equalizer; it loosens up constipation and firms up diarrhea When I was bouncing between the two after abdominal surgery, it's what my Dr. put me on and it did 'equalize'. Julie p.s. the IBS info is targeted at people so, some of the items won't apply, such as drinking too much coffee....you ARE limiting him to just the one cup a day right? hee-hee....
