    I bought PlumSmart Light by Sunsweet and it works. I am drinking 8oz in the morning right now and I will slowly decrease the amount until my body gets normal again.

    Ditto on the Plumsmart...also, try eating 2 Sunsweet "Ones" Prunes each evening. That really does help!

    I have a prescription lax that I have to take each day for IBS and before I was put on those I took OTC stuff and it made me feel worse everytime.

    If you feel like you need to go and cant you need to try something like a saline lax you drink. Those are the type of things the DR makes me drink before having a upper or lower GI scoping done.

    DRINK LOTS OF WATER.

    I too have IBS and I have to take laxatives all the time. I don't go without them. I used to use citracell but after two weeks of that I am so bound up and in pain.
