Yikes, Pattye! Please give the name of it. Sure hope you feel better now. Sure hope it wasn't MiraLax (if not, it might be a good one for you to switch to).

All Senna products are recalled at this time due to quality control issues (no specifics have been given.)  This includes Sennokot, Sennokot S, and all other products containing senna.  Talk with your pharmacist about an alternative product.

I take enough iron that I was taking Sennokot S every day.  I am not doing as well without it.  I hope they get their act together soon!

As far as I know the recall was not due to anything scary dangerous.  Doubt it has anything to do with a headache.  When I talked to my pharmacist I was not told to throw away my remaining product.  She would have definitely told me if it was in anyway dangerous.




I have maintained for one year at this point.  I am steady at -120 pounds.  =)

thank you! all I know is what she researched and what was sent to her. I was shellshocked when  I went to get some and the shelves were totally empty.
guess its back to the drawing board about my headache and dizzy spells
