How Long You Need To Take Linzess

Carol Says:
I have Hyperparathyroid Disease and have suffered with severe constipation for several years, caused by high Calcium levels. I recently became severely impacted and had a procedure in my Dr's office that was excruciatingly painful to de-impact me. He put me on Lizness 145 mg and it has helped me to have regular, pain free bowel movements every day. I was so relieved! Can I stay on Lizness for a long period of time safely? I feel like it is a miracle drug for me.

You can stay on it for as long as your doctor feels it is safe for you to do so.
The FDA does warn that it may cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, stomach cramping, flatulence, and diarrhea.
You can find more details on Linzess by clicking this NDC code: 0456-1201
Is it still working well for you?
