Hi,
If there has been no difference then it either hasn't been cleared or it isn't the cause of the problem. I had a bad dose of SIBO and the treatment worked leaving a marked difference to my IBS. There are alternative medications for SIBO. After clearing SIBO I have been given an antibiotic which I now take permanently to stop it reoccuring due to my extreme IBS. My SIBO produces methane.
Cheers

Hi cheyne: I was just diagnosed with SIBO (methane overgrowth) The special Rx for this is Xifaxan, there is no generic, and the 2-week dosage cost is $900. Is that the drug you took? Are you able to say what antibiotic you are taking permanently ? I am afraid to spend that much money if there are alternatives Thank you! HMM

Thank you so much!! That’s what I was thinking. IF the SIBO is still there maybe if I get rid of it it will help me feel better at least a little I would think.
