Constipation
Has anyone got any secret formular that works for constipation. I am on I.V Abraxane which I was on 5 years ago. I was hoping that it would be only for 6 cycles but asking my oncologist this week ,...
Just went to a GP with my husband and he is constipated after hospital. We got told to try in this order.
1. Fibre - take Metamucil - daily. If that not working. 2. Coloxyl - 2 tabs twice a day
3. Lactulose - 20mls twice a day then 4. Movicol satchet - twice a day.
When I was in hospital, I had an 80 yo woman in the next bed who hadn't been to the toilet for 8 days and her doctor told her to have chewing gum. (its suppose to have laxative effect).
