Love your ice? picture, Corsi. Maybe your sore throat will go away today so you can proceed with your surgery plans.

I did plan on taking my last Movicol tomorrow, and on Sunday I would take the strong stuff the hospital told me to take, but what should I do?? I want to stop, but I don't want to cause catastrophy either...
Movicol is stronger than lactulose isn't it?
How does MOM work?

I think movicol is on par with lactulose actually. Lactulose has just been around longer.

This is what I found on MOM and how it works. I think it has a more immediate effect that either the movicol or lactulose. Did the hospital tell you to take MOM?

1. Magnesium ions draw water from the surrounding body tissues into the intestinal tract by osmosis.
2. The higher quantity of water in the intestinal tract softens and increases the volume of feces, stimulating nerves in the intestines.
3. Magnesium ions also play a role in releasing the peptide hormone cholecystokinin, causing accumulation of water and electrolytes in the intestine and triggering intestinal motility.

Can you just cut back on the movicol gradually rather than stop cold turkey?
