Having too few bowel movements (fewer than three per week) can be a sign of occasional constipation.
Other common symptoms can include dry, hard stools; straining, gas, bloating and belly pain; or feeling like you can’t completely empty your bowels.
Our lifestyle habits play a large role in our gut health. Age, stress, travel, diet or lack of exercise can make going more difficult.
Take care to stay hydrated, eat fiber-rich foods and exercise daily. If constipation is an ongoing issue, speak with your healthcare provider.
There are many kinds of laxatives, and DulcoLax products feature two: osmotic laxatives, and stimulant laxatives.
Osmotic laxatives work by drawing water into the intestines to soften stools. Stimulant laxatives, like DulcoLax Laxative Tablets, speed up stool movement by stimulating bowel muscles.
