Colace Question

Swimfly35

I have to take iron supplents, and I got some pretty gentle ones, but it looks like they've caught up to me. I have colace in 100 mg, but I've seen them in smaller doses at the store.

Am I cool taking the 100 mg? How often do you think? Or should I get a smaller mg so I can take them on a daily basis if 100 is too much?

Of course I can email my Dr. I just thought I'd start here in case its no big deal.

Thanks in advance for your expertise!

my doc told me to take one hundred mg of colace twice a day with my iron supplement.  so far it has really helped. good luck

100 mg twice daily is ok with my doc too!  I also highly reccomend fiber one bars!!

I've been taken the 100mg's daily since the middle of my first tri, and no problems so far!

After giving birth to DS, my OB had me taking colace twice a day...once in the morning and once in the evening. After a few weeks, I cut back to once a day, then once every other day, and then stopped taking it completely so as not to shock my digestive tract.
