Laxatives: If there has been a recent change in your bowel pattern and you haven't had a colonoscopy for several years, it is recommended to have one. Most \MD's don't approve of a laxative habit. Have you tried increasing your water and daily fiber intake? The objective is to avoid your body's dependence on stimulant laxatives. Consider eating prunes, pears,apples,wheat bran.
