When I was on fentyl + other narcotics the only thing that helped was lots and lots of flaxseed oil. The brand I use is Barlean's. I take 6 pills/day and I'm not on any meds anymore so you may want to take more than that.

I was so constipated that NOTHING worked - no suppositories, no enemas, no smooth-move teas, no laxitives, nothing.

Another thing you might want to do is get a hydrocolonic by a reputable person. This is like a big enema machine that basically sucks the s**t right out of you.

I know this is not a pleasant subject but it is one of the side effects of opiates and many other meds.

I tried everything you can imagine and the flax seed oil pills worked the best but you need lots of them.

Peace and hope,
Lisa
