Yeah that's the problem with laxatives. Just when it seems like they won't work, they do......

Interesting that you're taking Amitiza and Motegrity. Motegrity does work like a stimulant laxative, only much milder (I think). Did the Amitiza by itself not work?

I ask because I'm taking Linzess and it's not working. How long before you saw results from Amitiza?

Thanks so much. If Linzess doesn't work I'm going to try Motegrity.

Amitiza works alone sometimes, but I want to be sure that it’s going to work on a more regular basis. Motegrity works more on the motility. It still is not perfect but it has definitely cut down on episodes of SIBO.
