What Causes Severe Constipation After Having Diarrhoea?
Can I take Linzess in the afternoon? I have been taking the 290 mcg in the morning, but due to the diarrhea it causes (which is better than constipation) I am unable to leave my home or the bathroom until after noon. Because of my schedule it would be better to be tied to a bathroom in the afternoon.

Hello,
I think you should manage the dosage of linzess or maybe stop it. It is used for irritable bowel syndrome when in constipation phase. You can't use it in the diarrhoea phase.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
