Adult - Constipation Relief Laxative 5mg Bisacodyl Gastro Resistant Tablets Tablets, 20 Count

Having never taken any Laxative before, I stupidly researched this Laxative 30mins after already taking a tablet and wholely regretted that decision. Everything I found online (as well as a lot of the reviews on here) said it was an aggressive stimulatant that WOULD cause excessive cramping and explosive Diarrhoea.... This caused tremendous anxiety and regret as I waited for it to take efffect! ..Well for me (thankfully) it did neither and was more of a stool softener. I felt a little discomfort overnight and felt my stomach was tender and a little sore as it took effect but nothing more than symptoms experienced on a typical menstrual cycle. I then went to the toilet 3 times 12hrs after taking but all results were firm and painless.. I have been another couple of times throughout today since with the same results. I'm extremely thankful and relieved and deem it effective and gentle overall I'm not sure I will take my chances on this again though as some of the other reviews and research read as hell fire and I may not get so lucky next time!

Overall, Dulcolax Adult is an effective and widely trusted solution for occasional constipation relief. It’s especially useful when you want relatively predictable results overnight. However, it’s important to follow the dosing instructions carefully and avoid long-term use without consulting a healthcare professional. People with sensitive stomachs might experience cramps or strong bowel activity, so water intake and timing matter. Ideal for: Occasional, short-term constipation relief Not ideal for: Daily use or as a long-term digestive health fix Would you like a quick comparison with a gentler option (like stool softeners or osmotic laxatives)?

Dulcolax does work for most people.The relief it brings is well worth it’s price .

Really good product you can rely on

…but it’s worth it. I had to get something to help me out after being on a long course of medication that caused a bit of a back-log. My stomach was cramping a lot, very sore and uncomfortable, so I got onto Google to find something and that’s what I found these little monsters. I have to admit that I was slightly terrified after reading these reviews and did think twice about ordering them but I did it anyway. I left it to a Friday night to try them out, mostly because of all the reviews saying you need some time once it hits and thank the lord I did. Friday around 10pm I took it and within two hours, I could feel a slight niggling in my stomach but off to bed I went. The cramps woke me up at 6am. It had arrived. It was sore. Over and over, fart after fart, the cramps kept coming. I had zero plans so I lay in my bed and went with it until it was time. It wasn’t pretty. Two sweaty smelly hours later it was time and the floodgates opened. My bathroom is about 10 steps away from my bed but when the feeling came across me, I thought I wouldn’t make it - thank god I was still in my boxers for easy access. It started off pretty solid and I thought I had got off lightly even though the cramps were insane but once you start, it just keeps coming and coming. The solidness leaves and the liquid arrives. The smell is horrendous. The heat is horrendous. The pain is horrendous. I never knew you could have so much liquid in you! About 20mins of the best fun I’ve ever had, it was over and boy did I feel better. The pain goes, the hard stomach goes. I think the porcelain lining of my toilet even disappeared! They really do work. Who knew such power could come from something so small. They definitely sort you out, but don’t make any plans for 12 hours after you take it and definitely don’t take it if you have work the next day. Will 100% use again if I feel I have to. I’ll just know what to expect this time.

Ok

First time taking these. Bought these as I needed a laxative after receiving surgery to help with my bowel movement. Well 4 days after surgery I took 2! it took between 6-12 hours for them to work and had really bad stomach cramps. Not only did I take 2… I took them early afternoon!! And as a result I am now up all night going to the loo 🤣 Only take 1 people and don’t take them during the day like I did! Lesson learnt! It did the job tho!

Best gentle laxative available. No cramping with 1 tablet works over night after a cuppa tea , iv always had digestive issues from a child ,no matter what I eat high fibre and excercise plus whole grains drink water etc never made any difference , I take 1 every 2 days so to keep me going ,highly recommended due to there effectiveness plus gentle action, never needed to take 2 so you may get craming with that dose ,
