How many do you take a day?
If you went them to be less strong you can take one a day or every other day.

I had lactulose after my c section and hysterectomy

I had lactose as well and I was given 2 bottles so maybe ask to be prescribed another. I also drank loads of peppermint and fennel tea which helped. At first when they gave me 2 bottles I didn’t think I would need them but I did.
