I found a product for constipation called oxy powder which claims to be natural. i suffer from constipation. i now take plaquenil and arava. i have not had a bowel movement in 6 days and i dont know if ai should take this or not?

One choice: This product contains a high dose of magnesium (think Milk of Magnesia). It should stimulate the bowel to empty, but may give some cramps. After 6 days, you may need an enema (oil retention best) to soften and stimulate the ‘plug’ to move. Begin a water retention product (miralax, colace) daily, increase water intake, add roughage and fiber to regular diet, consider dulcolax for short term.
