[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 87706, member: 1991"] Lynn, that herb sounds like senna. There are various preparations available in the pharmacy which use the same thing. Whatever preparation you take, be prepared for it to be rough. ANYTHING which will move things along, natural to chemical, is likely to possibly be a problem. You really need the doctor's OK, even for something herbal. Remember, cyanide is natural too. "Natural" doesn't automatically mean "gentle". Willow bark is natural, it's where we got aspirin from originally. But aspirin is far gentler than willow bark. A lot of drugs are replications and refinements of what is found in nature. Sometimes this means they're better, sometimes it means they're not as good. Marg [/QUOTE]
