IBS: It’s Not In Your Head—Advances In Diagnosing And Treating, Bloating And Tummy Troubles with Dr. Mark Pimentel
The Dr. Hyman Show
Prophylactic Antibodies and Treatment for IBS
Prophylactically administering antibodies to IBS patients with diarrhea is crucial to differentiate between food poisoning and other causes. This approach also helps in preventing complications and intensification of nerve damage in the gut. Additionally, the use of Zephaxan prophylaxis is common to manage patients with high antibody levels. Conducting a three-gas breath test is essential to identify the type of microbiome condition in patients, leading to targeted treatment. Refactamine is recommended for IBS patients with hydrogen or methane levels, often combined with Neomycin or metronitazole. Different treatments are administered based on the gas profile found in the breath test.
