Description du cours

Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a common gastrointestinal (GI) disorder characterized by recurrent abdominal pain, altered bowel habits (such as constipation, diarrhea, or both), and bloating. The goal of IBS management is to improve symptoms related to IBS, prevent complications associated with less useful testing and treatment, and improve the patient’s quality of life.

This program will provide participants with key information about recommended therapies for patients with IBS.
