have problems with defecation. I am 45 years old and constipation has been my major health issue for the last 6 months. I have tries docusate sodium (100mg) and it does work. Still, I am not a fan of medications and I don’t like using them. What are the possible side effects of this drug?

I can tell you that I also used this medication and I did not have any bad side effects. It works by softening stool. Doctor mentioned that the drug is harmless, perhaps only nausea might happen from time to time, but that is also very rarely. I think that it is safe for you to use this med.
