For Constipation "I was nervous about taking an enema after I tried another laxative and had excruciating cramps. I was desperate, though, so I did it. Didn't hurt one bit and easy to do. I thought it would feel weird filling up with fluid, but other than the temperature, it felt like nothing. I felt the urge after like 2 minutes and immediately released all the fluid and no BM. Thought it wasn't working. Then 5 minutes later, it worked SO WELL over and over. Never felt better. Effects lasted 30 minutes, and for comfort, I sat on the toilet seat with a heating pad on my stomach the whole time. Super minor discomfort in the abdomen right before a BM release for like 10 seconds, but no severe cramping at all. All my bloating, constant strained tiny BMs, gas, and chest back pain gone! Try it if you need it!!"

For Constipation "I have been trying to pass a bowel motion for over a week now. I tried everything from coffee, spicy foods, and apple juice to Miralax and oral laxatives. Oftentimes, I tried a couple of methods in one day. All it did was stir my stomach and give me gas. I suffer from internal and external hemorrhoids, so pushing the slightest bit causes inflammation and pain. I've had enough and purchased the Fleet Enema. I contemplated the mineral one vs. the saline but stuck to old faithful and used saline. 30 seconds is all it took, and I made a huge and smooth bowel movement. I currently have some cramping, but it feels like it may just be a little straining and could be because I used the whole bottle (some people recommend only half). This stuff is amazing!"

For Constipation "Suffered from constipation for years. Not the first time I've used this, but again, it has pulled the plug within a few minutes of using. About 10-15 mins on the loo, a lot of noise (gas?), but definitely feel better. To counteract any chills others describe, I always have a warm bath run ready to get into."

For Constipation "I can’t go to the bathroom unless I use Fleet enemas. It’s made me codependent that my brain won’t signal to give me an urge. Either I use the enema or I will never get relief, and when I do use them, they put a lot of gas on my stomach, which makes me bloated and uncomfortable. No matter how hard I have tried to drink prune juice, apple juice, or take stool softeners, I am unable to evacuate. I can do 3 Fleet enemas before I feel better to start my day, but they leave me bloated and poop mucus. I wish I never started using them because now I can’t go to the bathroom on my own like a normal human being."

For Constipation "Ok. I had been basically constipated for 2 weeks, only going a very little (a couple of pebbles at a time). Having lots of gas, and then OMG! Fecal incontinence. Had leaking sticky stool (very little), but it freaked me out. Contacted my doctor after taking Sorbitol 2x a day (due to opioid meds), tried Miralax, still nothing. The leaking bothered me more than the constipation, but was uncomfortable with the bloating and feeling full all the time. The doctor recommended I use the saline Fleet enema. I couldn’t hold it long at all, but it has relieved it somewhat. No leaking that sticky stool, so it is half a success. Will do a 2nd enema tomorrow and see if I can hold it longer and really clean things out. But I did get relief. I will keep Fleet enemas in the medicine cabinet from now on."
