Does Constipation Ever Get Better?
Updated
Sandi Says:
Hi. I'm on my second week and have lost a few pounds. I was just wondering if there are any longer term users who experienced constipation that did not last. I had pelvic surgery a few years back and a sling was needed. I am worried that the straining of constipation might mess with my sling. If anyone has had relief from constipation, I'd be interested to hear about it an if you have any suggestions. Thanks!

Hello, Sandi! How are you?
Yes, several other users have reported experiencing constipation and that it usually goes away after a week, or two, as their body gets used to the medication.
Other side effects, as listed by the FDA, may possibly include nausea, dizziness, headache and insomnia.
However, in your case, you should check with your doctor to see what you can do to relieve it in the meantime. Fiber supplements may help.
Is there anything else I can help with?
