Laxative?

Can anyone tell me a good laxative or stool softener to take? I'm sorry to have TMI, but I need something good - this not going to the bathroom is making me feel bad!! I'm 4 months out and have been taking Correctol which works once in a while, but I need something better. Please and thank you! Crystal

Hello have u tried Milk of Mag and Colace that normally works for the patients here and is not hard on the stomach...i hope this may help if you are having an on going problem you may need to call your surgeon and some Miralax may need to be prescribed for you... Jennifer Advanced Baraitric Center

Colace twice a day. Benefiber tablets twice a day. AND smooth move herbal tea about twice a week. That's what works for me...all the above.

my doc. has me on one little cup of milk of mag every night. But ask your doctor. It don't cramp you. And is sugar free. amy
