For Constipation "I've used it in the not recent past with some pain, and it's been effective, but last night was horrible. I took it just before bed, and I've had terrible cramps, broke into sweats, and spent part of the night on the bathroom floor in pain. I wasn't even able to go to work today. It is working, but the side effects are horrible. I still have sharp pains, and it's noon of the next day."

For Constipation "I took one pill before I went to bed. Early morning, I woke up in so much pain and broke out in a sweat to the point that I got so dizzy and thought that I was going to pass out. I was able to turn on a fan in my room that helped cool me down. That pain was so severe that all I could do was rock back and forth. The pain lasted two days. I will never take another Correctol. This should be taken off the store shelves. It's gonna kill somebody!!!"

For Constipation "3 out of 10 only because it does clean out your system. However, the pain I feel with them is horrible. I had never taken any laxatives before, and this was my first one, so when I first took it a few months ago, I thought the extreme cramping, sweats, and pain were normal experiences and just what happens when consumed. I took them last night around 2 a.m. before I went to bed, and when I was in the shower this morning around 8 a.m., all the symptoms hit me at once. I ended up having to quickly get out and threw up before I even dried off. After I threw up, the pain got worse, and not only could I not get off the toilet, but I could not stop throwing up at the same time. The symptoms last for hours and are not worth it!"

For Constipation "Will never take again. Took 2 pills 2 hours ago and am in the worst pain ever. The pain is so severe it's coming through my back. I'm doubled over on the floor of my bathroom. I can't even get up. How is there not a lawsuit after all these reviews? I barely have used the bathroom. If pain gets much worse, I am going to the emergency room. It is so bad, and it is not my lower stomach. It's from my belly button up and coming out my back. Do not use this stuff. It will hurt you. It is dangerous."

For Constipation "Worst stomach pain of my life. Agonizingly painful. Never again. Took 3 for severe constipation. Debating on going to the ER if the pain comes back..."
