I have tried taking Linzess as needed and everyday. My experience was more often used less lt will works. Taking a break from your Linzess just for one day can make it work better. But need to use fiber drink or stool softener in place of . Do not eat bananas or any food that will cause constipation. Drink 100% pure apple juice and orange juice high pulp and fresh oranges . Also eat activia yogurts with fiber one everyday will help .

I would think that the fiber in fruit like bananas would promote regular bowel movements (as they have in my experience), but I know we are all different. Dried prunes or dates also reportedly aid in GI tract motility; and probiotics are another thing that may be worth implementing. I suppose there is no one right way to make things flow more easily, but in the general sense, staying hydrated and consuming fibrous foods doesn't seem to hurt.

There are a lot of mixed reviews surrounding this drug here on MedsChat, though I hope everyone here who may be relying on Linzess continues to see improvement in their bowel movements.
