i take about 1/1half packets at lunch time, and it does the trick the next day... when i first started movicol my tummy was in uproar, it was rummbling, gurgling, i was brping, farting, i was told this was all normal until ur insides get used to movicol.
i found eating more helped after taking movicil help with the wind , pain etc too,
man there was days i afraid to pass wind, lol. i go to the toilet and sit just in case lmao. but at the time not funny.
so depending how long youve been on the movicol for it just might be that, try cutting down movicol a little aday, i used a tea spoon(tip from my friend on here cheryl)
do you take your with hot or cold liquids, my crs told me pineapple juice for a good effect, other says with hot/warm water or hot orange juice helps with te wind etc, and also helps reduce the amount of movicol you take each day,
every1 is different, me i like it with fresh orange juice or plain cold water..
i tried it with hot water and honey once, it worked to well,
warm water i found made it taste more yuck than it is already, but must admit, did seem to work better. infact i mite try it again, tomorrow just to see,
anyway i hope the pain u were in is now starting to lesson.
