It works but the cramps are NOT worth it. Couldn’t sleep and all during the night after taking it because of the pain. Still couldn’t go to the bathroom until after 12 hours after taking it

I had taken this medication a long time ago and it was an awful experience but I tried it again tonight and the same AWFUL experience. I had stomach cramps that felt like contractions and nausea. I will NEVER do this to myself again no matter how backed up I am.
