Perhaps you need a different dosage? A consultation with a dietitian? I take peppermint oil (sold at CVS as Intestinal Defense...the CVS brand). A low FODMAP diet also did wonders for that for me. There are still issues with IBS-D symptoms but it is better. Good luck.

A bariatric dietition is who prescribed the Creon. But I may need a different dose. I have been thinking about a low Fodmap diet, maybe I will try it. I do drink peppermint tea but have not tried peppermint oil—how much do you take? I rely a lot on immodium.
