What Causes Stomach Churning While On Miralax, Linzess And Fluoxetine For Constipation?

I have been dealing with cronic constipation most of my life. I have been put on miralax, linzess, and fluoxetine once a day for about a week now and it is making me feel very weird. My stomach keeps churning but can t get hardly anything to pass through. Would this mean I m cleaned out and should discontinue use.

HI,

Constipation is not the disease until and unless proved, it is just the condition and it may be due to less intake of water and fibre diet, it may be due to the wrong diet, more fat-containing diet, fried diet.

Drink plenty off water even if you are not trusty, have more fiber containing diet, chews well while eating, stay away from depression, keep the regular habit of defection (Go for latrine ) even in the absence of need of it, sit there for a while, no need to exert the force no matter if you do not pass the stool, you can try the Isabgol powder.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
