NEW TO LINZESS?

We can help you manage your IBS-C or CIC symptoms.

LINZESS is a once-daily pill that’s proven to treat multiple symptoms of IBS-C. It helps you have more frequent and complete bowel movements and helps relieve constipation and overall abdominal symptoms* (belly pain, discomfort, and bloating) associated with IBS-C.

*Abdominal symptoms were studied in combination, not individually.
