Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- The subject is an adult male or female aged between 18 to 60 years old.
- Clinically diagnosed with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) based on Rome IV criteria: Abdominal pain at least 4 days per month - over at least 2 months - associated with one or more of the following:
- i. Related to defecation ii. A change in frequency of stool iii. A change in form (appearance) of stool iv. After appropriate evaluation, the symptoms cannot be fully explained by another medical condition
- The subject is having refrigerator at their home for storage of test treatment.
- The subject is willing to provide written informed consent, comply with the study procedures, and be present for all the visits.
- The subject is willing to abstain from using any other treatments for irritable bowel syndrome during the study period, unless for a medical urgency.
- The subject is in a stable medical condition, not requiring immediate intervention or hospitalization.
- If the subject is female, she is willing to use a highly effective method of contraception throughout the clinical investigation.
- i. Females of childbearing potential must practice and maintain an established method of birth control (e.g., IUD, hormonal implant device/injection, birth control pills, diaphragm, condoms with spermicide, partner vasectomy, or abstinence).
- ii. Non-childbearing potential females who are surgically sterile, post-menopausal for at least 1 year, or have had a tubal ligation, must have been using hormonal contraception for at least 6 months and agree to continue using the same contraception for the study duration.
You may not qualify if:
- The subject has a history of diagnosis of either hypertension, diabetes, or liver disease.
- The subject has any other significant medical condition that could interfere with the study or pose a risk to the participant.
- The subject has used medications that could influence the study outcomes, such as antibiotics, immunosuppressive drugs, and probiotics or prebiotics supplements within the last 4 weeks.
- The subject works in frequent night shifts (working night shifts at least 3 times per week), and refuses to change the lifestyle.
- The subject has a history of alcohol abuse.
- The subject is either pregnant, lactating, or plans on conceiving during the course of the study.
- The subject has participated in other clinical studies or received any investigational agent in the previous 30 days.
- The subject has other significant gastrointestinal diseases (e.g., Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, celiac disease).
- The subject has any condition that, in the investigator's judgment, would compromise the subject's safety or study integrity.
- The subject has abnormal baseline Haemoglobin (Hb), Complete Blood Count (CBC), Urine Routine/Microscopy (R/M), or Stool Routine/Microscopy (R/M) results that suggest a different pathology than irritable bowel syndrome.
