I'm taking the movicol as well. I find the taste absolutely disgusting but given that I'm 26 weeks pregnant and still suffering morning sickness, i find i'm really intolerant to anyhthing that isnt sweet-unfortunately. I don't add anything too it i just knock it down and hope for the best.When you are in absolute agony and the choice is going to hospital for iv hydration and an enema the motivation is pretty strong to drink the stuff. At my worst i was drinking three sachets a day for two days with at least a one litre increase in my water and it took two days for action. The thing that had me worried was was i going to have an uncontrollable explosion when i did go. But rest assured it was very normal just alot of it as it had been over a week. Hopefully once this pregnancy is over things will return to normal as i've never had a problem with constipation in the past. It has taught me though to express a little more empathy to patients now that i've had first hand experience and know how painful it can be.
