Can you tell me if i could take a laxative the night before school?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
What's the goal here: If you repeatedly take laxatives, i assume you feel very constipated or are looking to "cleanse." If the latter, please reconsider & check out numerous healthtap answers that point to problems with colon cleansers--don't use them! if constipation is new, has significantly worsened, is accompanied by distension, vomiting, fever, pain, esp. If "colitis" (inflamed colon) is present, see doctor.
