I’ve been on Linzess for 3 months. I can’t take it every day or then it’s all water. I take it 3 days on then 3 days off. However, I take several meds 450 Pregabalin , 200 amitriptyline 50 juvenix,
All which doesn’t help me go. I have Huntingtons disease just as a reference. I take 1 Linzess every 24 hours. But nothing I’m just back to my normal of going once every 10 days or so. My question; can I take another Linzess at the 12 hour mark since I’m so uncomfortable now? Does anyone know? I’m in Las Vegas, Nevada and getting questions back from a doctor here is like playing craps. Sometimes you win but it’s stacked for the house🤷🏼‍♂️

@mister1 Hi...I don't know what dose of Linzess you take. however I do not recommend doubling doses. I tried taking it a few times before bed and sometimes before dinner....both caused lots of gastro distress. If you take a low dose, have dr increase it to next level and see if that helps.
