I'm having some issues with my stomach that have been bothering me for about a year now. Lately, I've noticed that I'm having trouble when it comes to going to the washroom. It's been happening every morning and then again in the afternoon. It's really inconvenient and causing me a lot of discomfort. Could there be an underlying issue here, and what can I do to address this?

I've been taking Dulcoflex for about a month now to help with constipation, but I'm noticing some weird side effects. I'm going to the bathroom a lot more often and I'm always hungry, even after eating a big meal. I've also noticed I'm losing weight and there's some itching around the anal area. I've done a bunch of tests but everything comes back normal. Could you suggest what might be going on or recommend some medication that could help? I'm really worried about these symptoms.

The symptoms you're experiencing, such as high urination, excessive hunger, weight loss, and anal itching, despite normal test results, may be related to the laxative Dulcoflex (bisacodyl); consider stopping or reducing the medication and switching to a fiber supplement like Psyllium Husk or methylcellulose to manage constipation
