Lizness

Updated

Can I take Lizness only as needed, maybe twice a week or do I have to take it every day. I do not like the idea of having to take a medication for the rest of my life daily so really only wanted to take it when it was really necessary since it works so quickly. I need it because of my IBS and have tried everything else but it still makes me nervous to be on it daily especially since it has not be around that long.

Hello, Lori! How are you?

You should take it according to your doctor's instructions. Many medications don't work as well, unless a steady regular level is maintained in the body.

Typical side effects to this medication may include nausea, bloating, stomach pain and gas.

Many people do take medications for their entire lives, for heart conditions or high blood pressure, there is nothing wrong with it.

What specifically worries you about it? Perhaps that can be addressed to help calm your fears.

There has not been any long term research on this drug. I do not want to take something for 10 years and then find out that it causes something more serious in me. If it was a drug that has been around for a while I would feel more comfortable.

My Dr has me on it every day due to all my infections from food poisoning. It works fast but ot is only given to people with serious problems with IBS or Infectious Colitus or infecticious inflammed diverticulitus . Constipation can become toxic so im not afraid of any of the side affects of lizness. I honestly trust it better than over the counter meds. Hope this helps hun

I'm wondering the same thing, Lori. I've been on it now for 6 plus months and I like most others don't want to have to take it while out and about so I'll skip that day.
Just wondering if that hurts anything.

I have been taking it only 2 times a week. There is no way I can take it every day. I am a teacher and cant get to the bathroom during the day. It works very well but I really need to be home or able to get to a bathroom so there is no way I can take it daily.
I hope it is ok to use like that.

I don't like to take it every day. I did find that eating salads at dinner time helped elimination a little bit.

I take it every other day, just to feel empty. I live it. I also took 1 in the evening even tho it wasn't before my first meal it works great.
