A member asked:

I have just been diagnosed with laringeal reflux and i was wondering if i can still take metamucil ( orange flavor) or if it somehow makes me worse ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Won't do anything.: Metamucil will not make this any worse and as you can see didn't make anything better either.
