how much colace do i take?

Postby poleidopy » Dec 14, 2005 1:17 pm

Now that I am on day three of zofran, I am way stopped up, if ya know what I mean. I'm miserable and in pain. I had DH pick me up some generic colace and took two at 6am. Still nothing. Maybe it was my HG/sleepy/dizzy/disoriented state, but i swear the bottle does NOT say how many to take! So...how many? What has worked for others? DO I take them w/food or a drink (ha, ha...right!) I did manage to drink a little juice w/the ones i took this morning. should I take more?????

You can take up to three per day. I used to take them every night before bed. It may take a couple of days to work, but once they do if you take them religiously, they will hopefully help.
