What Is Sibo?
SIBO is a gastrointestinal condition marked by an abnormal increase in bacteria within the small intestine, leading to symptoms such as bloating, abdominal pain, excessive gas, diarrhea, and nutrient malabsorption. It can interfere with daily life and, if left untreated, lead to deficiencies in vitamins and other nutrients. With the right treatment and support, most people with SIBO experience significant symptom relief and improved gut health.

Because SIBO frequently involves the digestive system and can be associated with underlying motility disorders, prior abdominal surgeries, or other gastrointestinal conditions, your physician will also consider your full GI and medical history when building your care plan.

Frequently asked questions
SIBO stands for small intestinal bacterial overgrowth. It occurs when bacteria that normally live in other parts of the gut colonize the small intestine in abnormally high numbers. Common causes include impaired gut motility, structural abnormalities, prior abdominal surgery, and conditions like irritable bowel syndrome or diabetes.
The most common symptoms include bloating, excessive gas, abdominal cramping or pain, diarrhea, and in some cases constipation. Chronic SIBO can also lead to malabsorption of nutrients, resulting in deficiencies in vitamins such as B12, and unintentional weight loss.
SIBO is most commonly diagnosed through a breath test that measures hydrogen and methane gas produced by bacteria in the small intestine after you consume a sugar solution. A clinician may also consider your symptoms and medical history as part of the diagnostic process.
Antibiotics are the primary treatment for SIBO. Commonly used options include metronidazole (Flagyl), doxycycline (Vibramycin), and others depending on the type of bacteria involved and the patient's individual history. Your physician will choose the most appropriate antibiotic for your case.
Yes, SIBO can recur, especially if the underlying cause is not addressed. Strategies to reduce recurrence include treating any motility issues, making dietary changes, and in some cases using probiotic supplementation. Your physician will discuss a management plan tailored to your situation.
Many people with SIBO benefit from dietary modifications such as a low-FODMAP diet, which reduces fermentable carbohydrates that feed bacteria. However, dietary approaches work best alongside medical treatment and should be discussed with your physician.
