Ask a pharmacist for a suggestion for an OTC laxative. And make an appointment with your primary doctor to figure out what needs to be done long term

There is a condition called diverticulious. That is a very serious condition. I can dehydrate you and cause lower pains. Please let us know if you’re having any of these symptoms. Our advice is still please go see a doctor. Urgent care ER or any of the following.

I had constipation problems on clozapine. I wouldn’t go for a week, but I used magnesium citrate to help me empty my intestines, it’s the same stuff used before colonoscopies. You can buy it OTC.

Now I use senna supplements daily, but it took a long time before it kicked in. I would definitely use the mag citrate…

i can vouch for magnesium citrate. i took it as a supplement and prob have never pooped so much in one day. similar effect with a big spoon of cayenne pepper mixed in water, but the burning and swollen bum resembling hemorrhoids was not welcome

Beware over doing it with magnesium citrate because that can lead to loss of bowel Continence

3,2,1, lift off! But I agree this should only be used like once. Plus you need to drink some electrolytes.
