Can i take a laxative every other night for my constipation from ibs?

This might cause laxative abuse issues. Discuss with your Dr.

Avoid using laxatives. There are several things that can help: 1. Increase water & good fats like coconut oil 2. Take Magnesium 300-800mg/d depending on the salt 3. Take good probiotic 25-50B & change brand every few months 4. Take Aloe vera caps ~450 mg/d 5. Get motility activator & takes 2/d 6. Stop or reduce pain meds, excess calcium, iron 7. Increase activity
