Irritable Bowel Support - Set of 5.

Educational  Overview

Irritable Bowel Disease (IBD)

Irritable Bowel Disease (sometimes referred to as a disorder or syndrome) is a broad term used to describe a group of gastrointestinal conditions. These involve inflammation of the lining (mucosa) of the digestive tract.

IBD may occur in different parts of the system:

• Colitis – affecting the large intestine
  
  

• Enteritis – affecting the small intestine
  
  

• Gastritis – affecting the stomach
  
  

Commonly observed signs may include chronic vomiting, diarrhea, reduced appetite, weight loss, or lethargy. These can also overlap with other conditions such as hyperthyroidism, renal concerns, or pancreatitis.

Microscopically, IBD has been described as an infiltration of inflammatory cells into the mucosa, though its exact cause remains unclear.

Related Conditions:

Triaditis in Cats – Traditionally recognised as a combination of three conditions that may occur together:

• Pancreatitis (inflammation of the pancreas)
  
  

• Cholangiohepatitis (inflammation of the gallbladder and bile ducts)
  
  

• Inflammatory Bowel Disease (inflammation of the stomach and intestines)

Conventional care may involve prescribed medications such as cortisone and ursodeoxycholic acid.

Traditional cautionary note

– Long-term use of certain drugs such as catabolic steroids or diuretics has historically been discussed in relation to strain on the pancreas or liver.
