100% natural herbal laxative/ Non-habit forming. Dietary supplement ## would like to try senn1300mg ## For anyone else seeking….this website doesn't manufacture, prescribe, nor sell any medications or products, including supplements. It is an information only website. And I am also not aware of any 1300mg Senna products that are available. 600mg is the highest that I am aware of being available for this laxative. Learn more Senna details here. I'd think that 1300mgs would likely be too much and could cause some problems, so you shouldn't take that much, without your doctor's approval. Are there any comments or questions?

I'm very nervous about starting the liquid Miralax as in the past with a colonoscopy prep (which I know is a much larger amt) I get terribly nauseated. Any suggestions as to how to get the 17g down? I have to do this twice a day and I've heard just plain water is awful. I plan on plugging my nose. Also, does anyone else have low energy with constipation? Thank you SO much ## How are you doing, Gina? I hope everything is going well and you didn't end up nauseated. But the nausea can be a normal side effect of most of these laxative medications. in many cases it's due to the stimulation of the bowel that happens, there's some internal bloating and cramping that you may not always feel, but it can put some pressure on the stomach making you feel sick.

A pharmacist told my mom that Senacot S and Senna plus has been voluntarily pulled from shelves, ANY INFO????? ## does anyoneknow why Senna plus has been pulled from drugstore shelves? ## I tried searching for this, but cannot find any information. Does anyone else know anything about this? ## I have been relying upon senakot for many years and am very upset that I cannot acquire it now. Other laxatives do not work well for me or as gently. It has not harmed me as I am now 81 and in good health. Why is it now not available. ## Try one of the drugstore house brands made to emulate it. I think you can still purchase senna supplements from nutrition stores and phsyllium husk products from Wal Mart. Senna is tough on my stomach so I only use it in low doses. Probiotics keep me regular.

I'm in Mexico with my 6 yr old and we had to go to the ER due to belly pains. She had major large intestine blockage and the start of strep throat. They gave her libertrim sdp. Ive had to do two enemas that seemed to work, but she has not had a bowel movement on her own despite being on this drug two days. Additionally, I can't seem to find the Sadie affects of this drug as all are written in spanish. She has had a fever for a few days and I'm curious if that is a side affect. ## An actual intestinal blockage would have required hospitalization and surgery, so I'm assuming she was just extremely constipated? First, if you've done enemas that clean out her bowels, she is not going to have a normal bowel movement until a day, or two passes after, simply due to the fact...

LAXITIVE ## I poo alot, :/ ## Senokot is an over the counter product that contains Sennosides and is used as a laxative, so it may cause some side effects, such as nausea, bloating and cramping. Learn more Sennosides details here. If you find yourself having frequent bowel movements, then the first thing to do is look at your diet and see if you can determine what's causing them. Do you eat a lot of fruit? Especially prunes or raisins?

I am taking coveram 1/2 of 5mg tablet as doctor was still concerned about BP, I increased to a full tablet. My small continuous stomach ache is now much worse mainly during the night. Coversyl plus did the same and ended up in hospital with acute pancreatitis and that is why I was changed over to Coveram. ## The following symptoms are all listed as side effects of Coveram: stomach pain diarrhea constipation muscle cramps feeling sick (nausea) Does the stomach ache still occur even when you are off the medication? I was thinking perhaps it could have something to do with foods you may have been eating, but those side effects make it pretty clear that Coveram is the main issue here. None the less it's probably wise to stop taking these types of medications in general if your body just...
