I'm with Pink on this one. I know far more about constipation then I'd like to admit. I've tried it all and believe me....Senokot is by far the best in my opinion.

Hi Bill, sorry your friend is having so much trouble with this issue. I had a rough time with it too. Senekot worked somewhat but what really did the job for me was that fairly new yogurt that promises to regulate your digestive system. I'm not sure of the name now cause it's been awhile. Might have been Activia. I ate one little container of that stuff and it sure did the trick.
Good luck to your friend
Hugs
