Can I alternate between Buscopan 10mg, Mebeverine Hydrochloride 135mg and mint oil (2ml capsules)? If so, in what doses, how many times a day and at what intervals. I have been diagnosed with IBS and for 3 days I have been constantly suffering from the lower abdomen and lower back and area. To the doctor only in 3 days. Can IBS really hurt that much?
