Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great stuff It works, but not quickly. I’ve been advised by my doctor to use this, I have medically induced constipation from anti depressants and tricyclic medications. This is a lifesaver and won’t put on weight.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Highly recommended Informed my surgeon that I was constipated for a few days after my last surgery. She prescribed this and I have to say I'm impressed. Within 5 hours I had bowel movement. It's thick and sweet so drink it slowly and have water afterwards. It can also be used by kids too which is a bonus but please ensure you read instructions prior to use.
