Obbekjaers 200mg Extra Strength One-a-Day Peppermint - Pack of 60 Capsules

I would recommend peppermint oil at around this strength for anyone with painful IBS.I've had IBS for years and tried all sorts of treatments. Buscopan does nothing for me and it's prescription counterparts are barely any better.Peppermint seems to be the best thing but there are lots of options. I would not recommend anything that isn't actually oil because it tends to mean you just end up getting less than 1/4 of the dose and because the directions tend to be to take 3-6 times as many they are rarely cheaper either. Plus it's generally easier to remember to do something once a day than three times a day.Personally I found 1 of these capsules, shortly before breakfast very effective followed by a mug or two of peppermint tea in the afternoon as needed.If you find these too strong I would recommend capsules around 50mg 3 times a day before food.It's worth noting if you have acid reflux as well that peppermint can make it worse and with strong capsules like these you can get quite harsh menthol reflux. I only recently discovered this and would suggest anyone that has both IBS and reflux is careful not to take too much peppermint, or when needed use antacids to counter the peppermint.Hopefully this information is helpful to someone.

Did not arrive as stated was later than stated. Product appears to be helping a little thank you

Helps me with my indigestion.

This product is helpful at dealing with occasional indigestion or bloating. It’s easy to take and works quickly. I find it works as well as windeeze —but the recommended dosage of obbekjaers is one a day so you may benefit from having both in your medicine cupboard!

Love these. Help to calm stomach

If you intend buying these, I suggest you take one at least an hour before your meal, otherwise all you will taste all night is peppermint.

I used to buy this product many moons ago, they work so well I was delighted to see them online. No more tummy troubles !!!!!!

I'd been plagued with IBS for about three years and tried various remedies prescribed by GP. Nothing worked, until a friend recommended these. As soon as I started taking them, I noticed an immediate improvement and after a few weeks the symptoms had eased completely. I now just take them as needed, when I recognise the symptoms returning. They've massively improved my life. Highly recommended!
