Guest guest Posted August 14, 2008 Report Share Posted August 14, 2008 Annemie - If that is a powdered laxative - make sure you are drinking plenty of water - a minimum of eight 8 ounce glasses a day. Some people have better luck drinking ice water with it, while others have better luck drinking very warm/hot water with it. Also, if you use milk of magnesia and want it to work more effectively try mixing it with 2 ounces of warm/hot water. Don't know why this works but it does. Another cheap thing is to eat a whole bag of diabetic gummy candy - the artificial sweetener in it is known to cause diarrhea - therefore you don't want to do this on a regular basis but it might help things out now.
