When my pDoc put me on a long acting opiate for pain management he told me to do this daily, as it was imperative to staying regular, he also said to drink large amounts of water to help with regularity. I know its gross, but its a part of taking opiates regularly.
Is Colace a laxative? Because if you take laxatives you become dependent on them as well and when you stop using them, you become even more constipated. My Aunt ruined herself by taking laxatives, she now has to take them, she can't even detox and go through a withdrawal and then be back to normal, her bowels are basically ruined according to the doctor.
I dunno what would happen if you took them with an opiate, maybe they cancel each other out?
