I took 2 Tramadols yesterday and had a bad time this morning in the toilet. I am already using a stool softener (lactulose).
Do you know of any pain medication that is still effective but constipates less?

Hi Joanne,
In addition to the stool softener, have you tried consuming prunes, prune juice or taking a magnesium (not the oxide kind) supplement? If not, they might help.
