Hi I've just started taking iron tablet and today is the first day that I haven't been able to go to the toilet. I have heard that constipation can be a side effect and would like to squash it before it properly starts.
I've had sachets of movicol and laxido before from my chemist but those were after surgeries when I needed to take quite a lot.
As I'm just looking to take it to keep me regular, rather than sorting out an impaction or days worth of buildup, how many should I take? I don't want to be having emergency urges while I'm out. I literally just want to use it to keep me normal.
Anyone used it for this before??
