For Constipation "DON’T USE THIS STUFF. IT’S BEEN 36hrs since I took these and I am having the worst stomach cramps of my life. I had to go to the ER yesterday because of how bad it is. Also it barely even makes you go, like out of all of the times I went like 5 times something came out. Just don't take this stuff."

For Constipation "I have chronic IBS-C and I typically go about 3 days without a BM and I find that normal. Well this past week I could not get any relief. I tried miralax, flaxseed, Metamucil, fleet glycerin suppositories and liquid suppositories to no avail. I have take dulecolax in the past and it has always woken me up on the 6hr mark in screaming pain. It feels like a drank lava. I can feel myself about to faint because of the pain. So I decided I needed to try a senna lax and OH MY GOD. I was in a panic last night thinking about my terrible experience and waiting for the cramps to set in. While I did cramp, it’s been wayyy less brutal and I actually had a normal bm this morning. I will definitely be taking this again if I ever need some extra assistance. Please don’t use this product long term as your body can become dependent. Now if this product made you feel absolutely terrible I suggest trying the dulcolax. My grandma swore by it and didn't like ex lax. Everyone’s body reacts differently!"
