Comment:
I wanted something gentle so I could wake up and have a bm. Since it was the 1st time using this I had no idea how long it would take to work. Took it about 9:30 pm didn't work until in the afternoon. For me that's just not effective enough.

Comment:
I only take once per week, it keeps me fairly regular, without it I can go an entire week or more without a movement. With Senokot, I go alot the first day after taking the med, then a little for the next three or four days, then at end of week, we start all over again. I highly recommend this med over all other stimulants.
