Q: can i take milk of magnisiaor ducolax every other night for my constipation from my ibs?

: Yes you can take milk of magnesia every other day or if you need it you can take it every day you keep yourself well hydrated unless your doctor has restricted the fluid intake. Dulcolax is a Stimulant laxative and it’s good for occasional use. Hope it helps.
