Hello, Jill! How are you?

Some people do take it that way, depending on how it works best for them. There is no harm in trying it that way, if your doctor approves of your doing so.

The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, bloating, stomach pain and diarrhea.

However, have you tried just using fiber supplements?
