Prunes or prune juice. I am on iron pills right now and have the same problem with constipation. The prunes work like a charm!

Tried every drug and diet....all failed
Step 1- 6/25/10 (colectomy & J-pouch creation)
Step 2- 10/8/10 (take down)
Very pleased with my results.

Same thing happens to me. I would take some milk of magnesia to loosen things up.
