Activated charcoal shows modest effectiveness
Charcoal tablets in the treatment of patients with irritable bowel syndrome.
Study directly compares charcoal formulations
We explored the effectiveness of activated charcoal in treating irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) through a well-structured clinical trial. This study was a double-blind, randomized, multicenter trial that involved 284 patients aged 19 to 70 years suffering from IBS. Participants were treated with either a commercial formulation of charcoal tablets known as Eucarbon or non-activated charcoal tablets (carbo ligni, CL) over 12 weeks.
After the treatment period, we found that Eucarbon provided a noticeable relief of symptoms, alleviating discomfort by about 60%. However, the difference in efficacy between Eucarbon and the CL group was just 9%. Notably, further analysis suggested that Eucarbon had a greater impact on certain subgroups, such as those experiencing constipation.
Both treatments were well tolerated with a comparable frequency of adverse events reported—22% for Eucarbon and 17% for CL—making it difficult to differentiate some side effects from IBS symptoms themselves. Overall, we concluded that Eucarbon is safe and effective for managing IBS, a condition often requiring prolonged treatment.

Herbal treatment shows promise
Efficacy and safety of a herbal medicinal product containing myrrh, chamomile and coffee charcoal for the treatment of gastrointestinal disorders: a non-interventional study.
Activated charcoal's impact unclear
We conducted a study to gauge the effectiveness of a herbal combination that includes myrrh, chamomile, and coffee charcoal in treating symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). The study included over a thousand patients, who were treated with the herbal preparation, either on its own or alongside other therapies. The focus was on measuring the reduction in overall symptom scores among the participants.
While we observed a general decrease in symptoms across all treatment groups, patients with IBS showed some interesting findings. Those who used the herbal preparation alone experienced a significant improvement compared to those who used it as an add-on therapy or as part of other treatments. This was a positive outcome for those seeking alternatives to conventional treatments.
However, it's important to note that while the herbal remedy showed promise, we can't specifically attribute these benefits solely to the activated charcoal component. The combination with other herbs makes it difficult to discern how much each ingredient contributed to the overall improvement. Thus, we should approach the findings with some caution when considering activated charcoal's direct impact on IBS treatment.

Quick symptom relief
A cure for IBS symptoms! It's a miracle worker. This can swiftly and safely reduce Irritable Bowel Syndrome discomfort. It's easy to swallow and leaves a detoxifying feeling after using the restroom. The price is reasonable, and it even helps with allergy or indigestion symptoms from food poisoning. However, the carbon can stain everything, including bags and hands, and requires you to drink plenty of water while taking it.
