These work as intended.
These are a lifesaver for great digestive health. Providing comfort and relief when and where needed I keep some with me at all times. Being small, odorless, and tasteless they are simple to take with just water and last for an effective time.

No go
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I didn’t really like this product. I prefer the chocolate treats over pills. I didn’t find these to be effective for my case. I would not buy this product

Near-death Experience
Took 2 ducolax pills at 4:30 p.m. as the first part of my prescribed prep for a colonoscopy after fasting for 22 hours. I woke up at 11:30 p.m. with violent diarrhea, nausea, sweating from severe pain, cramping, shaking, dizziness, severe pain in the back of my neck, chills, and feeling like I would pass out and hit my head and die. I'm 56 and have never been this sick. After this extreme episode that lasted about an hour, I got back into bed and continued shaking uncontrollably for another hour or two. I fell back asleep around 3:00 a.m. and woke at 4:30 a.m. to my alarm for the second part of my prep with Miralax. I was very scared to take the Miralax after having the described near-death experience. Fortunately, the Miralax was a walk in the park compared to the Dulcolax. And I took the whole bottle of Miralax that was prescribed (8.6 oz.) over the course of several hours. Dulcolax needs to be banned. I will be returning the remaining 23 tablets to Target.

Affordable care in a tiny package.
Much to my amazement, these tiny tasteless pills are not only affordable, but they work great. They do exactly as descibed. Just stay close to a restroom. I give it 5 ⭐️

When in doubt go for this
So I know this is always a sensitive subject, but I have dealt with constipation what some of us can relate to it’s not the cutest or the prettiest but when you are dealing with this, you definitely need something to help you sooner rather than later so I definitely think this is one of my go to items. I definitely recommend it.

Definitely works!
I have chronic constipation and use these tablets twice a week. Works overnight just like it says. But, when it works, it really works….. stay close to home!

Not gentle
This laxative is more like a strong colon cleanse. I took 2 pills in the morning in case I had a bad reaction I didn’t want to be up all night. Just a couple hours later I had my first BM and it was pretty loose. Then every hour or less after that I’ve had pure liquid with urgency. Along with nausea, dizziness, fatigue and overall feeling like crap. It’s been 6 hours since I took the pills and I’ve been to the toilet 4 times already each time worse than before. If you’ve ever had norovirus or tried those detox skinny teas you know what I’m talking about. Thankfully no pain.

Experience with Dosage
So the product really works for what it’s for. I took 1 pill and had a slow bowel movement. The symptoms others listed like cold sweats intensive cramping, and nausea were seen when taking a single dose of two laxative pills.

Great over-the-counter digestive aide
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recieved this product from influenster at no charge in exchange for my honest review. It does the job ok and the prüfe isn't bad for an offer the counter medication. . Hatte the packaging because sometimes the pills are hard to "pop" out of the package. They pills are small and easy to swallow and don't really have a scent/smell or taste or anything chalky that make them hard to take.

It is very effective
The price is good, it's very effective, I only take it when it's urgent, bisacodyl is very effective, it's scary and the capsules aren't very big.

Simple and effective
I was having a few issues going to the loo and decided to give these a try. Taken before bed and the next morning, instant relief. I would definitely recommend this product.

Works well. Effective.
Always works without fail when needed. East to take because of the size. Always have in my medicine cabinet for use. They are also within budget and easily to find in any store.

Low affects
This is too gentle for me. It seems like nothing was happening and I still felt stuffed with a stomach ache. The Stronger strength is better for this with tougher stomachs.

Effective and Gentle
Easy to use. Small pulls to swallow. Effective to relieve constipation. Very little discomfort with cramping. Pretty gentle but effective. Pricing is very competitive. I recommend.

Great for constipation
Dulcolax Stool Softener is a gentle and effective option for occasional constipation relief. It works by softening stools, making them easier and more comfortable to pass without harsh cramping. I like that it’s not overly strong—it usually takes effect within 12 to 24 hours. The capsules are easy to swallow and don’t cause stomach upset when taken with water.

Works great! Though deeply painful, causes nausea.
Okay, don't get me wrong...this is a great product! It does what it needs to do and will clean you out with 2 tablets alone. However, every single time I take 2, a recommended dose of these tablets, I will wake up the next morning, rather early, with my body flushing, sweating like a pig and feeling like I'm going to vomit. Might I also add very washed out skin and the inability to stand without feeling dizzy and my vision going dark. Usually curling up in bed combats this problem and it's only a brief problem. This product is not at all gentle like advertised. A few hours later, the cramps will start. The most excruciating cramps you will ever experience, but it's how you know you're about to get the relief you need and it's your sign to run to the bathroom. I can guarantee you you'll be praying for Jesus himself to end your suffering if you've still got the nausea and sweats along with it. Anything backed up and solid comes out first, then the poop lava. You'll feel like a million bucks after!

Smashed Open Box
Received this as a drive up order. This box was smashed and damaged and the other was open. I don’t understand why I always get damaged or defective items at drive up. I’d rather shop in store and be able to pick out my own items and know they aren’t gonna me man handled by your associates.
