Seeing as I'm on pain meds, I know a lot about constipation. If you know you're going to be bound up, by far, the best med to take is
Senokot - but it's fucking EXPENSIVE! So I looked at the ingredients & there's really only 2. Rite Aid sells a generic version of both:
Vegetable Laxative
Col-Rite Stool Softener
I take 3 of the laxative & 2 of the stool softener 3-4 times a day, depending on my pain med intake. And it works PERFECTLY!
Also, just a couple of FYI's:
1 - Rite Aid does sell a
Laxative & Stool Softener combo, but I did the math & it's actually cheaper for me to buy them individually based on my dosages.
2 - Rite Aid has "Buy 1 Get 1 Free" deals on all their generic meds every couple of months, so I stock up when I see them on sale, because the laxative costs $20 & the stool softener costs $10. So, based on this:

I saved over $100
This concludes your "How To Avoid Constipation" lesson....there will NOT be a test
