I can no longer take Miralax, Milk of Magnesia. Linzess and Amitraz (sp) as they do not help.
I can only give you my experience.
Recently I tried senna for the first time and after two days x 2 per day it worked. Not enough to clean me out and I have asked my gastro dept for a prep. For a colonoscopy, I have do not think I will ever clear out for it this July. Due to precancerous polyps , I was supposed to have a colonoscopy after 3 yrs. It's not been 4 and I can't put it off any longer

So I can only suggest Senna at this point. The chronic constipation group I follow, have many suggestions what has worked for them.
