Might be getting prescribed one of these and worried about constipation as heard it’s bad on these.

Anyone experienced that side effect.

I have IBS and suffer with constipation but have taken both of these and they didn’t make it any worse. If you do try Dulcoease, it’s a lot gentler than Dulcolax and works really well.
