Abstract

The main functional disorders of the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) in the practice of internists include functional dyspepsia and irritable bowel syndrome, which often occur in the population. Current pharmacological approaches to the treatment of these diseases are based only on relieving symptoms, resulting in many patients remain unsatisfied and unhappy with their quality of life. In addition, drug treatment approaches are associated with side effects that reduce the benefits of therapy for the patient in terms of treatment outcomes. In addition to diet and lifestyle changes, the most common way to treat functional disorders of the gastrointestinal tract is the use of herbal preparations in the form of individual plants or their combination. Iberogast® is the drug of choice at all stages of the treatment of functional disorders of both upper and lower gastrointestinal tract. Multidirectional therapeutic effects, good tolerability without significant side effects, the possibility of long-term use are the distinctive characteristics of Iberogast®.
