Nausea is one of the many symptoms associated with Irritable bowel syndrome. It is not exactly known what causes it but recent research point to an overgrowth of bad bacteria in the small intestines a major contributing factor.

One thing that is for certain is that IBS sufferers have very sensitive colon muscles and this might be one of the reasons why they sometimes cannot hold any food down.

The cause of nausea in each irritable bowel syndrome sufferer also seems to be unique to each individual and therefore what works for one patient might not work for the other.

This can be frustrating because you essentially become a guinea pig as your doctor has to keep trying different drugs on you to see which one would resolve the problem.

You must bear in mind is that whatever drug you doctor may prescribe for you to use, it will not treat or cure your IBS. It will only mask your symptoms and not cure it in any way
