Summary

This study tests whether capsules containing freeze-dried fecal matter from healthy donors can safely reduce symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) in adults aged 18 to 65 who haven't improved with standard treatments. Participants take the capsules or a placebo for three days and report changes in symptoms, quality of life, and mood over 12 weeks. The goal is to see if this approach offers a new, safe option for managing hard-to-treat IBS.
