Constipation
"I had a not-so-great experience. I used to take Miralax, but it caused me problems and I was taken off it. Within 2 days I was constipated again, and Dulcolax was prescribed. It was prescribed by my doctor, 2 pills were taken 6-8pm for 4 nights, as instructed. 



I suffered, to say the least. Horrible cramps that came and went, and the first time I had a BM I thought I was about to die. I was constantly within 15 feet of a bathroom and often got hungry (due to being emptied out, I suppose), but felt rather sick and couldn&#039;t eat much. Whenever I ate, I often had to go a few hours afterwards, and the cramps persisted. 



Effective? Yes. Gentle? No way. It worked, but if you&#039;re going to use it, clear out your schedule in case of side effects."
