Hello... I jus had my gallbladder removed 2 Day's ago!!! I know I need to have a movement but CANT GO!!!!! Can I take laxative??? PLEASE HELP!!!!!

Hello Nesha,

Sorry to hear you had to have your gallbladder removed.  I'm afraid one of the symptoms is constipation and it is really common.  As far as I know, there is no reason why you can't take a laxative.  I wouldn't take anything to harsh.  Now I don't want to suggest a particular laxative to you.  First off I don't have constipation problems and have never taken a laxative.  So, what I suggest you do is talk to the pharmacist at the local pharmacy or discount store like Target and ask him/her what is the best and let them know you have had your gallbladder removed.  That is your best bet.  I'm sure with the help of a laxative you be feeling right in no time.
