Finding the right treatment for Irritable Bowel Syndrome with Constipation (IBS-C) can feel overwhelming, but understanding how different therapies work can make all the difference. In this episode, we dive deep into two key treatment categories: secretagogues and retainagogues—what they are, how they work, and why they matter for IBS-C patients.
Joining us is Dr. Darren Brenner, a leading expert in neurogastroenterology and motility disorders from Northwestern University. He breaks down the science behind these treatments, shares expert insights, and helps us understand when and why providers may recommend them.
Don't miss this expert-led conversation that makes IBS-C treatments clearer than ever!
