Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Why can't I take this with milk or antacids?
These tablets are enteric-coated to dissolve in your intestines, not your stomach. Milk and antacids reduce stomach acidity, which can cause the coating to dissolve too early, potentially leading to stomach cramps or decreased effectiveness.
How long does it take for Bisacodyl to work?
Most users experience a bowel movement within 6 to 12 hours. It is most commonly taken at bedtime to produce results the following morning.
Are these tablets difficult to swallow?
No. These are small, comfort-coated tablets designed for easy swallowing. However, they must be swallowed whole—do not crush or chew them.
