Guest guest Posted October 17, 2001 Report Share Posted October 17, 2001 I was prescribed 2 meds.. Symax SR for routine control (I take it scheduled), and Symax SL, which is fast acting, for breakthrough cramping, & only taken on an as-needed basis. Your pharmacist may argue about giving you both.. explain to them that the fast-acting is not scheduled, but only taken occasionally as needed. My pharmacist spazzed until I used very small words to reassure her that I was not planning to take both meds on a regular basis. I will say that the fast-acting is wonderful when needed, though.. Good luck, AJ.. I know exactly how you're feeling, hon. Hugs, Liane > What is the med they gave you for your IBS? I am going in to the dr this > afternoon...I want to request something.
