I have difficulty having a bowel movement even with medication, what can I do?
33-year-old woman
Hello, I started Ozempic a week ago. I have had constipation since then. I have always been very regular. Despite taking Senokot 2 days ago and RestoroLAX today, I still haven't had a bowel movement.
Should I be worried? Are suppositories a good solution? Please note that I have no pain or bloating!

Hello ma'am,
If Restoralax has been partially or ineffective, I believe that taking it twice a day for a few days could help.
I would encourage you to drink plenty of fluids and eat lots of fiber (fruits and vegetables and whole grains) to soften the stool.
I will be available if you have any further questions!
