Hi!
It is vital that you drink enough fluids while taking medications, especially enough water for that is essential to prevent rock hard stools, especially while taking medicine that has can cause constipation as a side effect. To make sure you are drinking enough WATER…take your body weight and divide by 2. For example, 130 lbs equals drinking 65 oz of water daily. Also, if you are not drinking enough water, all that added roughage is only adding to your constipation. It also helps to add walking, yoga, or low impact exercises to your routine…even 15 minutes twice daily, if you are able.
Hope this encourages you and you are feeling better soon.
