Has anyone tried Milk of Magnesia to help with constipation? I was backed up for a couple of days and started to feel so gross. I took it and feel so much better now! I looked on line and saw that it is safe for pregnancy - but has anyone else heard that it is safe too?
Thanks!
Re: Milk of Magnesia
I picked up a pamphlet at the pharmacy last night and this is what it says:
"The best way to ease consitpation is to make sure your meals include high fiber foods, such as bran cereal. If necessary, you can use a bulk-forming agent such as psyllium (Metamucil). Other products such as docusate sodium (Colace), magnesium hydroxide (Milk of Magnesia), glycerin or mineral oil have been shown to be safe.
