Taken too many laxatives

Posted by jesuslewis on August 28th, 2017

Laxatives are a group of medicines that are used to treat constipation. Taking more laxatives than recommended can lead to overuse and abuse. Abuse of laxatives is often done to lose weight. Overuse and abuse can lead to dependence; body can no longer produce a bowel movement without the help of laxatives.

Laxative abuse can be dangerous. Diarrhoea, nausea and vomiting are potential side effects. Also lead to a deadly electrolyte imbalance. Electrolyte depletion can cause tiredness and muscle weakness. The only thing you can do is drinking plenty of fluids (water) and eat a BRAT diet such as bananas, rice and toast.
