Diarrhea-predominant irritable bowel syndrome (IBS-D) is a highly prevalent but poorly understood condition with limited treatment options. Current therapies, including a nonabsorbable antibiotic rifaximin or diet low in fermentable oligosaccharides, disaccharides, monosaccharides, and polyols (FODMAP), show efficacy in 50% or less of patients. In this proposal, we will randomize IBS-D patients to receive either rifaximin or low FODMAP dietary intervention.
