Could Probiotics make my IBS worse?

[Katymac]

& if so how long before it goes back to normal (I took them for about a week, about a week ago)

Which probiotics did you take?

If they have FOS (fructooligiosaccharides) in them, then yes, as they are a fodmap. If I eat something that triggers my IBS, I eat nothing but chicken and rice for 2-3 days and everything calms down. If you've been eating a normal diet it would take longer to calm down, but I would have thought you;d notice a difference within a week.

Jarrow Formulas Ideal Bowel Support probiotics are good for IBS, as they have potato starch in them, not FOS.

this one I thought it was fairly bog standard

I am on FODMAP generally for 2 long years
