Colpermin IBS Relief Capsules (20)

Colpermin IBS Relief Capsules are used to help relieve the symptoms of Irritable Bowel Syndrome. It contains natural peppermint oil, which helps relax the muscles in the gut. This can ease stomach pain, reduce cramping, and help trapped wind pass more comfortably.

Each capsule is specially coated so that the peppermint oil is released in the intestines rather than the stomach. This helps target the area where IBS symptoms occur and can reduce bloating, discomfort, constipation, and diarrhoea.
