A member asked:
Is it better to take metamucil in the morning or at night?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Metamucil: Better at night with a full glass of water. As a laxative, expect results by the end of the following day. Also, night time is when the body produces cholesterol. Psyllium, the active ingredient in metamucil helps to reduce cholesterol.
