A member asked:

Can milk of magnesia make you pee a lot too? i took it one day for consipation. it helped but been peeing more. i had a recent urinalysis which was clear. i did have uti. i did drink quite bit of tea with water too while on mom?

MOM by itself has a negligible effect on urine output. The additional fluid intake in the form of tea/water would trigger more urine output.

Agree with Dr. Ferguson. For constipation - You may take a fiber laxative like Metamucil and drink enough water daily so that your urine is colorless. For the long term you may try to increase your intake of fiber foods. Consult this site for fiber foods. http://www.mayoclinic.org/healthy-lifestyle/nutrition-and-healthy-eating/in-depth/high-fiber-foods/art-20050948 Wish you good health!
