It is injected, and will cause a BM within 1/2 hr or so.
Faster in some.

You can ask your doctor about it.

I see it is contraindicated for patients with mechanical gastrointestinal obstruction. I wonder if this means my Gastroparesis, which is caused by failure and irregularity of the stomach muscle pacemakers to fire, thus causing immotility.

I'll have to ask my doc about that. Thanks for the info. I wonder if anyone else has taken this around here.
