A member asked:
Im having severe abdominal pains after taking ducolax. how can i treat this? i took 1 pill at around 8:30pm and started feeling this pain about 3 hours after.

I : I am answering this question three days after you wrote in. If the pain has not resolved by now, you should contact your doctor. Dulcolax can cause significant stomach cramps. The best thing to do is to hydrate really well. The majority of the pain is likely to go away after you have had a bowel movement.
