Chronic use of Senna
I have IBS-c and have used Senna fruit tablets, 2 at night fairly constantly over 6 months.Some research papers say it shouldn't be used chronically as it can cause a lazy bowel but others say there is no good evidence that Senna fruit can damage the colon. Has anybody any experience of long term use

Hiya, just wanted to post my recent experience for anyone currently struggling with their child’s chronic constipation.

Is your child on 29mg senna too?
Hi, our lb is 6 and it's been along road of constipation and disimpactions for us. His paedeatrician has upped his senna to 20mg as his still has no sensation. We're reducing the cosmacol (macrogol) to balance this but he's soiling multiple times a day. He couldn't go to school even if they were open

Possible family food intolerance - any ideas?
I developed digestive problems (intense stomach pain, constipation and nausea) suddenly in December, after some tests I was told by a gp it was ‘probably ibs’. By this time I’d started the low FODMAP diet and it was helping quite a bit although not 100%. The question I have is my teenage daughter has

10ml senna for 3 year old
My son 3 Been on movicol for impactation for almost 2 weeks, no movement other than leakage. Doctor has now prescribed (over the phone) senna liquid 10ml daily a hour or two before bed. Everything I've read online says the dose is way too high. Anyone know if it is, don't want to make the situation

Slimatee
Hi, has anyone used Slimatee teabags to help with constipation? I know the ingredients include Senna, and I am trying to avoid using laxatives. However, I am suffering with long term constipation due to slow transit constipation plus a 45% prolapse (rectocele) and I am tired of having to eat prunes every

Yikes- it’s like waiting for an unexplored bomb to go off!
I’ve got colonoscopy procedure tomorrow- to say I’m anxious is an understatement- I’ve taken the two senna tablets this morning at 8.30 but so about 40 mins ago - so far.... nothing! I’m dreading the onset of the diarrhoea... helllllp!

Hiya I'm prescribed an opioid for pain which makes me extremely blocked up, I'm also on other meds like diazepam & meds for copd etc. My question is can I take Senna with laxido, as I've gone from been extremely sensitive to laxido to it barely working at all. yes it's keeping stuff soft but I still

Advice re Chronic Fissure for a 40-year-old Athlete
Hi, I'm new here. Thanks to everyone who's already posted. I first developed an anal fissure in 2.5 years ago. I kept thinking it would heal on its own. My surgeon told me continuing to row and bike wouldn't make it worse, but it definitely [i]seemed [/i]to prevent it from healing. I finally had surgery

Senna Tea?
I've read that Senna Tea helps some people with constipation. My questions are Which brands are the best? How often should you drink it? How long before you should get a result? thanks

After 3 months off Laxido 7 year old is soiling again help!
My 7 year old daughter originally withheld at school one week earlier in the year which caused her to be constipated. Fast forward through 3 disimpactions we found a maintenance dose of 1 sachet a day but in August we went abroad and her stools started to get loose so we thought due to the weather, increase
