Can you take metamucil everday?
Question:
Answers:
You can take it every day. if 5 pills is too hard for your system, try taking 3 pills to start. Here is the most important part. Drink lots of water with the pills, at least 2 glasses. Then drink at least 6 more glasses of water during the day, preferably 8. You need to add liquid if you are adding fiber, to keep everything moving. If you add an apple, and some other fruit, you will also aid your digestion. Feel better!
If the directions say that, then that would be correct.
You can take it everyday for up to a week unless your doctor has told you to take it for longer than a week.
If things haven't improved after a week, you really need to see your doctor since there may be a medical issue that's causing the constipation.
Not sure about the pills but my husband drinks the powder mix 2 times a day everyday. If that is what the directions say then I am sure it's fine.
I'd talk to my Doctor before I did.
