Stop taking medicine: Change your diet. High fiber helps. Vitamin c helps. Drink more water.

Mix it up: You may want to try taking a different type of laxative. You could try a stimulant laxative like senna or bisacodyl, or you could try taking a fiber supplement to help as well, although extra fiber can sometimes make people feel bloated if they take too much.
