Laxatives/fiber pills not working?

I took 4 pills 2 days ago and nothing. yesterday I took 7 and I still havent pooped. Why arent they working?

Answer #1

Sometimes fiber just doesn’t get you moving. You may need a laxative like Milk of Magnesia or cascara. There are also tiny tablets that can be “explosive” called bisacodyl (Dulcolax) Just be careful and only take the recommended dosages. If this is a chronic problem, you need to talk to your doctor about adding something like daily fiber and a stool softener to your medication regimen. Remember to drink lots of water too. Good luck and get movin’!!

Answer #2

try caster oil its this liquid laxitvie you take like a tablespoon or two and it works in about 30 minutes to an hour. good luck

Answer #3

If the stool has hardened after all this time, then the fiber’s brushing and irritated intestines pushing (from the laxative) might not be able to force it out. Try a stool softener. Don’t take more fiber or laxative than what they recommend. That’s like putting extra gunpowder behind a bullet that’s stuck in the gun barrel; whether it gets the bullet out or not it’ll be a spectacular mess.

Answer #4

I’m having the exact same issue as you right now!! Lol. I tried drinking a couple cups of green iced tea and a couple more of water last night, and all it did was make me piss every 10 mins throughout the whole night. I tried squeezing but my muscles seem lazy. Only I’ve had Fiber One cereal, not pills. It could just take a day or two because it usually does if you’re adding more fiber to your diet. My best guess is to wait it out and keep drinking water, otherwise a laxative might be your answer.

Owww, I’m all crampy…lol.
