Reply to "Questions about Metamucil and Imodium"

Did you take the Metamucil with a meal? I found that I needed to take it just before main meals, with minimal water, in order for it to help. And the smooth variety worked much better than the normal one.

Imodium made me feel a bit sick, so I never bought a second packet, and can’t comment on it.

From what I have read here over the years, most of us need to get up at least once a night for a BM. I do, and I’ve had my pouch for a long time.

You are making good progress at 8 months to only have one BM per night and an occasional “sleep through”. As your pouch matures up to the one-year mark, maybe you will see more improvement.
