I have been taking it for 10 years and I am very happy with the medication. It keeps my colon calm and I don't have to urinate as often since I have been taking this medication. I was given this when I had ulcerative colitis.

taking homax as directed has not done anything to lessen the pain at times even causing cramping that did not have before the med.

This drug has been very helpful. Different medications have been Rx for me with very little satisfaction or reducation of IBS symptoms. Hyomax has helped a lot!

This drug is a life saver. I was just recently got diagnosed with IBS. I didnt think anything would work. Thinking it was a mental thing I tried paxil which kinda help but it had way to may side effects. So after seening a gastrologist she gave me this. At first I took it 3 or 4 times a day but now its once or twice a day when i am going out. I feel like a normal person going once a day and not always worrying.

I have IBS and I always had really bad stomach aches, and when I went to use the bathroom it was always a surprise what came out. But ever since i started using this pill my simptoms have lessened. It doesnt cure my IBS but it has eased all the symptoms. WOW i love it. I take one or two pills everytime i feel like im getting a stomach ache, and the pain goes away. no more cramping.

I would say this is a great drug, its really calmed my stomach down alot. I think my only dislike is having to carry pills around. Life is getting back to normal.

My 13 year old sons Doctor prescribed him this medication for severe stomach pains. After one dose (tablet) he was rushed to a Pediatrician that said this medication had basically caused him a Toxic Poisoning and still 5 days later he has Dilated pupils, Dizziness, Hi Pulse, High Blood pressure. He was given an adult dosage. I tried calling the Doctor that prescribed this medication to him but left on hold for 4 hours (6 different calls) and yet to have her call me back so next time she doesn't adminster to a child and possible fatality harm this child.

I use this all the time when my stomach hurts and is causing painful cramping this helps great. I have had stomach problems for years and this is the first medication I can rely on to relieve the symptoms.

This does seem to help and I do not leave home without it in case it hits me when I am away from home. It does make me sleepy though.
