mineral oil

For those of you with a hankerin' to try the mineral oil, we usually recommend #1 fiber, #2 add colace, then #3 also add mineral oil (1 tbsp 1-3x/day). You just have to experiment with the right concoction to get the "desired" result. When things are working, back, off in the reverse order. C

Is it safe to take something like Colace everynight. I need a softner and something to make me go. This must be a real problem for alot of us. I mean when I finally do go I am in for the day. Thanks Dr.C. and everyone. Cindy

Yes, you can take colace daily if you need it, but I always recommend fiber as a first line and continue the fiber along with the colace. C

HANKERIN????????????????????????????????????????????????

more fiber wasn't cutting it for me. But I make sure I eat it everyday still. The generic Colace.. keeps me fairly regular.. unless I'm in a rush, gotta do a ton of stuff..Tis' the Season ho.. ho.. ho.. and don't sit and relax when need to. It's not the surgery, I've just always been like this. ACK Mineral Oil? Only as a very last attempt Happy Holidays Dr. C
