Information for the Patient

Zelnorm(tegaserod maleate) "Be yourself again"



If you have recurring abdominal pain or discomfort, bloating and constipation, you may have a treatable medical condition called IBS with constipation.



Ask your doctor about getting relief with Zelnorm, the #1 prescription medicine for the symptons of IBS with constipation.





Information for the patient



Rx only



Read this information carefully before taking Zelnorm. Read the information you get each time you get more Zelnorm. There may be new information. This information does not take the place of talking to your doctor about your medical condition or treatment.



What is the most important information I should know about Zelnorm?



If you get new or worse abdominal (stomach) pain, or blood in your stools, stop taking Zelnorm right away and tell your doctor. Your doctor may have to do tests to find out if you have a serious problem.



Sometimes Zelnorm causes diarrhea. Stop taking Zelnorm and call your doctor right away if you get so much diarrhea that you get light-headed, dizzy, or faint.





Well, I think that's all I needed to know!
