Pain control irritable bowel

Has anyone used both Cymbalta and Gabepentin together for abdominal pain?

@winweb, I have not used those medications however these links present the role vitamin B1 plays in the gut and it may help you. . Note that magnesium is needed to activate B1 (thiamine). Activated thiamine is needed to activate B6 so you see the B vitamins work better together. Standing in the way of normal thiamine intake are anti thiamine factors that diminish or destroy thiamine. Always consult your health care provider before using any supplement.
