I too have bouts with IBS at times, mainly due to stress, we cause it ourselves, unfortunately. Anyways, caffeine whether tea or coffee helps the intestines to move quicker, thus it's off to the bathroom you go. I use Citracel in the evenings, and the Dr. said use it in the morning as well until you are back to normal. It does work for me. Not having enough fiber in a diet to help the system also causes flair ups. So try to get more fiber in your diet, I'd stay away from caffeine till you're back on track and ask your Dr. about using Citracel, he told me the Gasto Dr. would tell me the same. But check with your Dr. first. All the best.
