I once called about constipation caused by meds, and the pharmacist told me what she uses and why, and what is safe to take (because of my meds). It was a very helpful call. Of course, now I have an Rx med for constipation, but her recommendation was helpful at the time.

Did you start an RX med for constipation because over the counter stuff wasn't working? Does it work well? I have serious constipation too and have been taking Senna, a vegetable laxative, every few days.
