Hi Colleen,

I'm on Linzess and it's not working (and my constipation is not Covid-related). I eat 11 prunes each day and other fiber-rich food. How much CALM do you take to help with constipation?

Thank you!

Joe

I take between 1-2 teaspoons. Two if I need more help with constipation, less if things are working as desired. I also have 2-6 prunes a day and a vegetable-rich diet.
