back of the bottle says starting dose 15-45mlConfused that's it. maintenance dose 15-30ml.

my problem is is that i have been on long term codeine, 60-120mg a day depending on pain levels, so i have become a bit bunged up. it's no too bad, i go every 3-4 days but the poo is hard and there is some lamaze breathing going on to get it out.

so how much should i take and how often?

Normal dose is 10 - 20mls two to three times a day I think but it works quicker for some than others so might be worth starting on 10mls and increase if not working.
