I am a 60 year old retired lady who has had IBS C for 14 years or so. I have been able to manage this reasonably successfully taking one and a half Laxido per day. Since Christmas I have not been able to go properly and the GP increased the Laxido to 3 per day plus Fybogel. I am now finding that although my stools are soft the urge to go is almost non existent. Has anyone got any suggestions?
Thank you.

Have you tried magnesium citrate or oxide instead? I take between 250mg to 400mg daily. It gives a much more natural movement? I came off the laxido for the reason you stated. I only ever use now if im absolutely desperate.
