Gas And Constipation

The past several times I have taken Linzess I have become extremely gassy about an hour later, but still no BMs. Does this happen to anyone else?

Hello, Susan! How are you?

Have you been making sure to take it a half hour, before eating or drinking anything else?

Some doctors and pharmacist didn't inform people that it must be taken in the morning on an empty stomach, with just an 8 ounce glass of water.

The gas can be a normal side effect, you may also experience dizziness, bloating and abdominal cramping.

Can anyone that's on this medication chime in?
