Comment:
I do not feel it being very effective. It creates explosive diarrhea within an hour or so of taking it and abdominal bloating too. I usually have to use miralax with it as well. Then Iâ??m still feeling bloated after that and often uncomfortable overnight. ð??

I hate this medicine. I bloat for 2 days then have explosive diarrhea for hours on third day. If this doesn't improve quickly. I'm changing meds.

Comment:
This worked gently and effectively for me, but I do need to stop taking it because it is giving me a severe throbbing headache. I too needed to also take citrucel fiber and a stool softener for Trulance to be effective. It did not give me intestinal cramping. I took this medicine for two and 1/2 weeks.
