A member asked:
If magnesium citrate doesn't make me poop, should i worry?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends on dose: If you took a tablespoon or so, you're probably still constipated. If you took the whole bottle, i'd worry. If you require laxatives regularly to have a bowel movement you should see your doctor. That is not normal.
