The medication has really helped to ease my IBS cramps. My only complaint is that it makes my mouth VERY DRY.

My Dr. just put me on Levbid Extended Release and I had it filled yesterday at our local small town pharmacy. No one indicated that it was no longer available. I would check a different pharmacy. Hope this stuff works for me. I am at the edge of my rope with this crap. Good luck to you!!

This medication has given me relief that none other has done. Now, when I went to pickup a new RX I am told the drug is no longer available. I was upset as it is doing the job that other drugs have not done. Why would they have discontinued this? There is no information available even stating that the drug has been discontinued. Drs. aren't even aware of this.

I have taken Levsin for 8 years and never got the relief that the Levbid is giving me in just a few weeks. It has been a big help to me and made things much more comfortable. Local Pharmacy has just told me this drug is no longer available. I want it available as it does a great job.!

I have had a sharp pain in my left flank that suddenly appears at the most random times. It is so bad that I can't walk, it wakes me from a sound sleep, and I have even thrown up from the pain. I have been to every kind of doctor and have spent thousands of dollars on tests all to show normal. I have had this pain for 12 years. All doctors have blamed it on my Endometriosis until I had a complete Hysterectomy last year and the pain has continued. I thought I was going nuts until my doctor decided to give Levbid a shot thinking that I may have a spastic colon. After a couple of days I noticed a world of a difference! I have always used Lortab or Percocet which then gave me even worse bowel problems and I was not sure what was worse the pain or both. I have not taken pain meds in over a month and I am just taking Levbid. For me this is the "miracle drug" I have been looking for! If you have tried everything I suggest giving this a shot!Read More Read Less
