I have another tip that might help. At one time I was on "Pamelar" the constipation was horrible. My Doctor told me about taking Milk of Magnesia and a Herb called "Cascara Root", in the Hospital it is known as "Black and White" (the Milk of Magnesia is White and Cascara Black taken at the same time) and given to a lot of Geriatric patients. Follow the Adult dosing of each. It was the only thing that worked for me. Of course ask your doctor first. Good Luck. I know some of the best meds are the ones with the toughest side effects. Lexie
