    AbstractIrritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and functional dyspepsia are chronic diseases of the digestive tract that challenge both patients and physicians due to their difficult diagnosis and limited treatment options. The international Rome IV diagnostic criteria are commonly used for research purposes. For IBS, the diagnostic criteria based on the German S3 guideline offer a less complicated alternative for everyday clinical practice. A thorough history and basic diagnostic work-up are essential for diagnosis, as reliable biomarkers are still lacking. Clinical manifestations of both disorders are variable, and it has been useful to allocate subtypes based on leading symptom clusters; these may facilitate the choice of diagnostic tests as well as symptomatic treatment approaches. Used correctly, the combination of available drug (mostly off-label) and non-drug options can help to reduce symptoms and improve quality of life.© 2022.
