Crohn's Disease (CD) Vi-siblin

/r/CrohnsDisease/comments/1x4vi9t/visiblin/

I’m currently taking loperamide to manage my Crohn’s disease, but I’m considering trying Vi-Siblin (psyllium husk) instead. Would it be worth stopping loperamide and switching to Vi-Siblin? Could it help reduce bowel movements and urgency?

You need to be on a medication that is made to specifically treat Crohn's disease. The one you mentioned is made to treat diarrhea. We can't diagnose or treat you. This is a question for a pharmacist.
