Plus Mini-Enemas, Docusate Sodium Constipation Relief, 5ml, 5 Count

Great product

Taking a GL1-p makes the digestive tract slow down. Which results in me being backed up with hard stool that is difficult to pass. I strain a lot and it feels painful due to large size and very little movement. These little enemas help greatly. Highly recommended for those with this issues. The product has numbing agent which helps with the passing of the large stool. So I’m not crying on the pot and regretting my life choices. The numbing medication is a game changer. It’s important to lay on your left side and insert. Then wait as long as tolerable before going to the bathroom. I only usually have to wait 3 mins honestly. I only use these occasionally as I try it not to let myself get bound up. Usually miralax a couple times a week will keep me stay regular. But when I forget to stay on my regime and have these terrible large hard blockages, this medication is what works best for me. And I’m grateful there is something out there on the market.

Holy Canoly do these work! I have irritable bowel syndrome constipation so sometimes I go two weeks for that going to the bathroom and that’s normal for me but obviously very toxic for other people. I am so amazed on how these work because quite frankly, I have tried glycerin, suppositories liquid and solid, I’ve tried bisacodyl suppositories and they’re subpar. Now THIS, got the job done in literally a minute for my sluggish gut. My only cautionary tale is that this does cause burning in the rectum, but I would rather feel a fiery butt, then not being able to go.

I really don’t notice much when it comes to numbing or pain relief however, It Most often brings about BM within 5 to 15 minutes. Small tube(s) but adequate because only a very small amount needed… which means most people can get up and walk around vs when using a bottle type enema. Applicator is smooth but use a lubricant as directed anyway.

Didn't wok as well a hoped...

My wife is paralyzed from the chest down. We practice what the hospital calls a "bowel program". She gets one of these every night, evacuates her bowels over the next half hour, and stays healthy. She very seldom goes a second time during the day in her chair. Her body seems to adapt to the schedule and responds quickly. They're small, easy to use, and effective with far less fluid than many alternatives. It's not a pretty subject to discuss, but you got to do what you got to do.

I don’t usually write reviews, but I just had to in case anyone else has the horrible issue of vacation constipation. I cannot go when I am away from home no matter what. I was going on a 8 day vacay and just knew not going for that long would be horrible for so many reasons! These work and quick and I’ve tried it all. So thankful! About 5 mins to work and depending on how backed up you are, you can be sitting on the toilet for a while but not like an hour or anything…..so convenient and these will be my staple on trips!

good product.
