I've taken it and I know Melody has as well for chronic constipation.
I don't think it did anything but it's worth a try.

Amitiza was highly touted by Takeda and is currently it's number 2 drug behind Actos, I believe. It is for chronic constipation of unknown origin in women.
It's supposed to be generally well tolerated but a lot of reports of headache and nausea.
