Summary

The general aim of the current study is to describe the effect of pregabalin on colonic and sensory functions in adults with constipation predominant irritable bowel syndrome (IBS-C).

Study hypotheses:

1. Single-dose pregabalin 200mg increases sensation thresholds and decreases sensation ratings in response to balloon distension in the colon relative to pre-pregabalin treatment.
2. Single-dose pregabalin 200 mg will increase colonic compliance and decrease colonic pain and gas thresholds in patients with irritable bowel syndrome constipation predominant.
3. Single-dose pregabalin 200mg increases the colonic phasic and tonic response to a standardized meal.
