I was recently told by two different people about Questran packets.   They swear it helped their diarrhea and urgency problems.  I was reading about it and think it might be worth a try.  Has anybody here tried it or even heard of it?  I read it is given to people who get their gallbladders out.

I used it on doctor's orders for almost a month. Did not help D and urgency at all, just gave headaches and fatigue. Many swear by it, though.

I would check into which one you might get...there is one with aspartame, I believe another does not. I'd totally skip the aspartame one and whatever has the most ingredients.

Hope it works for you....worth trying.

Yep. there's a light version, which is what they give me at the hospital but the one I take at home isn't.


I've been taking it because my doctor swears it is wonderful, but it doesn't do anything for me. One of the nurses at the hospital told me all the doctors swear by it but many patients tell her it doesn't work.

Somebody just gave me some packets. Maybe I will try it. I am desperate.
