- Trikki2MemberHey guys
So yes the age old story again. My nurse told me to take coloxl and senna with my movicol. Have you taken it and how does it make you feel?Sign in to react to this post - AfraserMemberDried figs and prunes (prune juice too) were my standard go to's. Yoghurt may help. Licorice can help too but is full of sugar. But if you haven't been for a few days, you may need some medication to get started again.Sign in to react to this post

- kmakmMemberAvailable over the counter in the pharmacy. My GP put me onto it. Great because you control the dose (it's a powder). I'm back on it every day now because of the AI drying me up... I prefer it to Movicol because it has much less flavour. It's almost neutral. And it's working. K xoxSign in to react to this post
