Can Milk Of Magnesia Be Taken While Suffering From Constipation?
Is it okay to take Milk of Magnesia while experiencing gall bladder issues? I have been constipated for two weeks and metamucil is not helping. I have a HIDA scan scheduled next week to get a better look at what s going on. My doctor thinks that there is sludge blocking part of the duct, as my ultrasound did not show any stones. I have had some gall bladder pain recently, but it is better not that I am watching my diet more carefully.

Try tablet dulcolex or liquid paraffin at night for constipation. Take high fiber diet, plenty of water, exercise and meditation. Avoid spicy foods. Find out proper reason for constipation.
