Starting school in nappies
He was on
Movicol
for over 2 years but won’t tolerate it in anything any more. He doesn’t communicate when he needs to go or if he has gone wee or poo so is completely reliant on nappies still.

What to expect from school?
She is prescribed
movicol
and lactulose - although both of these are a struggle to get down her. When she first started school I explained all to her teacher and she was really relaxed and just took it in her stride. She since has a new teacher.

Thinking about using Senna - advice please
Hi all, My almost 5 yr old has been on
Movicol
for 2 years. We are on a maintenance dose of 1&1/2 paediatric sachets daily and getting on fairly well. I feel as though the
Movicol
makes them soft and easy to pass but creates so much poo!

Chronic Constipation Nothing is Working
Food-based does not work; nor does fibre-based, nor seeds, nor psyllium
Movicol
/Laxido/Macrogol seems to do nothing, magnesium can make me very lightheaded; probiotics do not produce bowel movement. I AM DESPERATE! Any thoughts?

Days without bowel movement, with Movicol in system?
My 3-year-old son has been on a maintenance dose of
Movicol
Paediatric since March. It's been going very well (some days too well!), but for the first time he has had one day without a bowel movement, in spite of the fact that he had two sachets.

Oxybutynin. How long does it take to work?!
She’s been on 5mg a day for the last two weeks with one sachet of
movicol
per day to stop constipation. The only change we have seen is bigger accidents! Where her accidents were small patches, they’re now much bigger so I guess it’s increased her bladder capacity.

Strain even when BMs soft
I wanted to explain that as I was having to go to the loo lots of times but having to strain I didn`t think it was typical diarrhoea (or constipation) so it was difficult to know how I should be treating it, but she wasn`t interested I came away with a prescription for
Movicol
to see if making things

Stop pooing after discompaction programme.
We are just coming back down the
movicol
to the maintenance dose. I dont know if my son is doing enough quantity considering what he is eating. This has been difficult when it is watery but now he has not been today. I'm so scared he will start to block up again before I know it.

I thought i was on my own
He has been on
movicol
for a few years now and it doesn’t seem to be getting any better, he still has accidents everyday and I’m worried about him as he gets bullied on a regular basis at primary school from his peers because of it.
