A member asked:
Does it hurt to take a fleet enema (sodium bisphosphate) for constipation?
8 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
No: Usually the small volume of a fleet's enema is not a problem. If this is a persistent need to use the enema for a bowel movement, then something other than simple constipation may be a problem and should be evaluated.
