Equate Stool Softener Docusate Sodium Softgels, 100 mg, 140 Count

Give these stool softeners a try, if you're having occasional issues, that do not require medical attention. My husband has IBS and sometimes needs to take a stool softener, and ways has relief after using the Equate brand. If he takes them at bedtime, he usually gets relief by early morning.

I have Crohn's %26 use Docusate Sodium daily along with the other 30 or so pills I take daily. Unfortunately, taking a lot of prescription meds ends up with multiple side effects you need to combat too. I like that Wal-Mart has the Equate brand with a large amount of Gels in a bottle for a reasonable price compared to the name brand. I've taken name brand %26 the store brands %26 they work exactly the same, just cost you less because you aren't paying for the name. I definitely recommend Equate brand Docusate Sodium %26 any other over the counter medications you might need. I also use the Simethicone gels (gas relief) - I take 4-8 a day, so the bottles from Wal-Mart save me lots of cash %26 packaging waste compared to the name brand blister packs.

I've been using these for years due to other prescription medications that I have to take causing constipation in irregularity. I need a Muppet surgery and had to take pain medication which always causes constipation. I will take up to six a day of these and it really helps. They're easy to take and don't cause dependence.

These took a few days for my body to get used to , because the first few days I felt nauseous after taking them but I soon learned these are better taken shortly after eating a filling meal . After discovering that I no longer have those issues and these do the trick and work well.

This item came promptly and worked for me overnight with the recommended dose. I also love the unique coloring of the soft gels, which I found extremely useful for identification when taking multiple meds, as the same color scheme can be confusing. Worked just as well, if not better! Plus, I can't beat the price. Satisfied with and will buy again.

I need to carefully select any over the counter drugs I use because of my weak kidneys. My kidney doctor recommended this as a safe laxative for my system. I know I can use these as often as needed because they will not harm my kidneys. When needed , I will take one each morning and one at bed time. Nothing harsh about this product.

This product is truly tasteless, works as well as more expensive brands and provides the needed results in the time range specified. This is my second purchase and I'll continue to use it if necessary in the future. Also, this is non-stimulant so no cramping or uncomfortable effects from using it.

For lubrication of the intestinal track, this works well. It's not really a laxative as it doesn't bring on a lot of pressure or cramping. It's just a softener to prevent straining. Post gastric bypass, this has been a required tool in my supplement regiment. For me, it's not helpful when constipated. It is helpful in preventing constipation.

I've wanted a stool softener WITHOUT a laxative! This says NOTHING about a laxative until I received it %26 then it was too late! I'd already taken one! I'm glad I only took ONE! Holy cow!!!!
