Is this something new on the market? I noticed when reading about that it is not to be taken if you think you have a bowel blockage. I guess you wouldn't know unless you had an x-ray because sometimes it's hard to tell, as I have had several. I usually use the MiraLax and I also use the prune juice and milk of magnesium if I fear a blockage. While I was at KU and May I learned about an old remedy using a half a cup of molasses + I have a cup of milk and warming in the microwave for 30 seconds and using as a enema. It seems to really work if you appear to be having a bowel blockage. It is called the last resort. I just read about gastropresis and I had never heard of this. I'm glad they have a treatment for this. I just got out of the hospital with a UTI. They seem to always wanted treatment they IV. They will starting me on Mandelamine to prevent UTIs. Does anyone else on the list take this medication and how does it work for them. Dana In a message dated 8/19/2012 10:37:45 A.M.

I also take a dulcolox stool softner everyday. Right now I'm on antibiotics for a UTI so I'm doubling up on the Amitiza and dulcolox. I've noticed drinking water all day long helps. >Amye >~LittleQuad~ >Sent from my BlackBerry > >
