Senna Lax

LAXITIVE ## I poo alot, :/ ## Senokot is an over the counter product that contains Sennosides and is used as a laxative, so it may cause some side effects, such as nausea, bloating and cramping. Learn more Sennosides details here. If you find yourself having frequent bowel movements, then the first thing to do is look at your diet and see if you can determine what's causing them. Do you eat a lot of fruit? Especially prunes or raisins?

100% natural herbal laxative/ Non-habit forming. Dietary supplement ## would like to try senn1300mg ## For anyone else seeking….this website doesn't manufacture, prescribe, nor sell any medications or products, including supplements. It is an information only website. And I am also not aware of any 1300mg Senna products that are available. 600mg is the highest that I am aware of being available for this laxative. Learn more Senna details here. I'd think that 1300mgs would likely be too much and could cause some problems, so you shouldn't take that much, without your doctor's approval. Are there any comments or questions?

Do I have to take senna 5 pills everyday along with the bethals ## These are over the counter products, so I don't really know how they are recommended to be taken. However, you should know that using Senna is not a healthy way to try and lose weight. It is a laxative, so long-term use can cause many problems, including your body becoming dependent on having it, which could result in constipation when you stop using it. Bethel S 30 is also a supplement product, that is claimed, but not proven to help with weight loss. To properly loose weight, you should follow a good diet and exercise regimen. Are there any questions or comments?

please let me know if there is any substitute for the syrup Encelax (Lactitol Monohydrate) available in the pharmacies in US. thanks ## Hello, Based on my research, Lactitol Monohydrate is an osmotic laxative to help hydrate the gut. If you use the Encelax for that reason, have you ever considered trying some OTC brands such as Dulcolax or Senna-S (natural vegetable laxative tablets? Those brands are carried at Walgreens online and CVS. Please post back if you need further assistance!

I've been prescribed both by the same doctor with the expressed knowledge that they are different. I don't use this doctor any longer and would like to avoid contacting her. Both are laxatives to assist with side affects from chemotherapy and narcotic pain medication. I'm curious if one is any different than the other aside from their color and manufactures. ## Hello, Lisa! How are you? Yes, they are different. The DSS stands for Docusate Sodium, it is actually considered a stool softener. Unlike a stimulant laxative, it will take 12 to 72 hours to produce a bowel movement, it really just helps soften it up, which may get it moving. Its typical side effects may include nausea and gas. Senna, however, is a natural herb that is used as a laxative, so it actually does help make...

A pharmacist told my mom that Senacot S and Senna plus has been voluntarily pulled from shelves, ANY INFO????? ## does anyoneknow why Senna plus has been pulled from drugstore shelves? ## I tried searching for this, but cannot find any information. Does anyone else know anything about this? ## I have been relying upon senakot for many years and am very upset that I cannot acquire it now. Other laxatives do not work well for me or as gently. It has not harmed me as I am now 81 and in good health. Why is it now not available. ## Try one of the drugstore house brands made to emulate it. I think you can still purchase senna supplements from nutrition stores and phsyllium husk products from Wal Mart. Senna is tough on my stomach so I only use it in low doses. Probiotics keep me regular.

I am using softovac (bowel regulator) daily night 1 spoon, are there any side effects of forming stones in pancreas etc? ## Softovac is a laxative that contains: cassia fistula 0.5 gm, fennel , ispaghula 2 gm, liquorice 0.25 gm, senna 0.75 gm WIth those ingredients, it is a supplement, rather than a medication and the side effect profiles are not studied for it. The only thing regularly reported is some abdominal cramping. However, you should know that if you use it every night for a long period of time, your body may become dependent on it and if you stop using it, you may be unable to have a bowel movement without it. Is there anything else I can help you with? ## Sir, thanks for the reply. As I am using 1 spoon regularly in the night from last 2 years. Last 15 days back I had a treat...
