Yes I use it everyday for the past 6 years and have a complete BM every morning it’s great medicine. Take in the morning ONLY. 30 minutes before breakfast and within 5-10 minutes - Success. Good luck. Another great thing to get which helps even more is by dr Shultz, Intestinal Formula #3 order it from his website take 2 teaspoons after dinner. This will clear you out COMPLETELY. Worth every penny

I’ve been told to move on to this due to Linaclotide manufacturing problems. However, I can’t get hold of this either. Have you managed to source some?
