- How does FiberCon compare with psyllium fiber?
- FiberCon uses calcium polycarbophil, a synthetic fiber that does not ferment in the gut, so it is less likely to cause gas and bloating. Psyllium is natural and effective but ferments more, which bothers some people.
- How long does FiberCon take to work?
- Bulk fiber laxatives typically take 12 to 72 hours to produce a bowel movement. It is not a fast-acting laxative.
- How many caplets do I take?
- The label dose is 2 caplets with a full glass of water, up to four times a day, for adults and children 12 and older. Do not exceed the label directions.
- Can I take FiberCon every day?
- Yes, it is intended for daily use as a fiber supplement. Drink plenty of water throughout the day and follow the label.
- Is FiberCon gluten-free?
