Regina, my dr recommended Lactulose. It is a thick liquid (like cough syrup) & tastes of oranges. It is mild but it works for me every time & within about 8 hrs. I don't need to use as often as in the early days of TM but I wouldn't be without it. Where I live, it is not sold on the shelf but behind the pharmacy desk.

Years ago, the doctor prescribed LACTULOSE to my mother after she had a stroke leaving her with major problems including a horrible case of constipation. He said that it doesn't irritate your bowels. Wondering if any of you even heard of it. Kevin, I would like to hear more about the herb you recommend. R
