Hi all! Glad I came across this thread. I'm 24, had chronic Constipation since I was 2. I have an ace stoma, and was also put on prucalopride about 4/5 years ago. It's always worked well for me, sometimes within 20 minutes, other times a couple of hours. Sometimes it will stop working as well, but I have my stoma to fall back on.
I too, have experience an increased appetite. Though it's not everytime I take it. I'm not due to see my doc yet, so I haven't mentioned it to him, but it's good to know I'm not the only one to experience this!

Has anyone had trouble trying to lose weight on this?

Hi, I know this thread is from a while ago but just wondered if anyone could up date with how they are doing with Prucalopride and the hunger issues. I’ve been taking it for a year now but still it causes me to get very hungry and bad tempered! I want to stop taking it but it helps for my bowels a lot so not sure what to do!

I've been on it for over a year and i have to train twice a day in the gym as i can't stop eating. I can't stop thinking about food and i literally can't control what and how much i'm eating. It is leading me to depression if i'm honest as I can't afford to buy new clothes and i have definitely put on over 14 pounds.

I try to alternate, so maybe take every other day and break on the weekends.

I can't stop eating too - it's so embarrassing and depressing to put on weight.

It causes constipation as it is hard to control what types of food I eat when taking the tablets.

Go back to your doctor as they are quite damaging as your bowels will rely on them and they will definitely not work when you stop.

Hi carole, I know this was years ago but for others reading this thread. It is different for everyone but just depends on how much waste are in your pipes and how severe the nerves are damaged in your intestines. I've been taking prucalopride for 5 years and im staring constantly. I will try to skip a meal somedays but its nearly impossible. I've put on over a stone in weight and I have to skip some days even a week sometimes because it depresses me with the constant mood swings and the hungar prangs.

I'm really hungry as well. If you keep taking it for a while it goes away. I've been off it for a month because I ran out. It definitely works the best for me but always makes me so hungry at first. I'm also dieting right now so I'm staying even though it's only 3:30 in the afternoon. Also when I first started I was hungry and eating a lot but I actually lost weight so I think it's ok. Like I said it should calm down in a bit also if you don't need it don't take it. I only need it a couple times a week to clear me out. So a box usually lasts me several months.
