And not only did the weight come back, but I would gain more. I am currently taking medications for blood pressure, cholesterol and I am borderline diabetic. About a year ago I was diegnosed with A-fib and am now taking an anticoagulant too. I will definitely be talking to my doctor about some of these medications on my next visit. Thank you so much. 👍

I’ve done OTC laxatives like Dulcolax, Ex-Lax, and Senokot, which can work sometimes but obviously I can’t become dependent on. Then I’ve tried prescription medications like Linzess, Trulance, and now I’m taking Motegrity. I’m curious about the mechanisms of action and the pros/cons to each. Thanks!
