Constipation, Chronic
"My healthcare practitioner agreed to prescribe.  I&#039;ve suffered from CIC since I was a kid.  As you get older, it gets tougher to put up with primarily because it&#039;s tough to have a normal schedule when you suffer from CIC.  This medication does work.  It&#039;s fairly predictable and doesn&#039;t &quot;linger&quot; all day.  It&#039;s important to note that it is an &quot;Osmotic&quot; and does not work like regular stimulant laxatives.  While that makes it safe for daily use, it also makes it more tempermental.  People find it works for days and then stops. Problem with Osmotics is if you&#039;re not hydrated, too hot, too cold, or exert yourself too much while waiting for it to kick in, it could disrupt its effectiveness.  Overall, it works but wish it were less expensive"
