Talk to your doctor if you are still constipated after 3 days. The most common side effects are diarrhea, flatulence, nausea, vomiting, and abdominal pain. These are usually mild and go away after a couple of days. Occasionally, people develop serious side effects, including severe diarrhea and electrolyte imbalance. Talk to your doctor straight away if you notice any of these. Before taking this medicine, tell your doctor if you have diabetes or if you are unable to digest milk sugar (lactose intolerant). If you are taking this medicine for the long term, your doctor may recommend occasional blood tests to check your mineral levels (e.g., potassium and sodium).
