I normally only take 50mg Tramadol in the evening as more constipates me and I have to watch that closely as I had an **** fissure 2 years ago which flared up again 2 months ago. 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.
