Wegovy - constipation | The J-Pouch Group

lizardMWCMember

Hi - I started Wegovy about a month ago and just increased the dose. Now I’m seeing the slowing down of the digestive system. Where I normally have a bowel movement every time I go to the bathroom, I haven’t had one today for 8 hours.

in addition to drinking a lot of water, what supplements - fiber, etc - have people found to be helpful w constipation? I imagine it’s a balancing act. Or perhaps Miralax. Thank you!

I get constipation with my pouch. My doc told me to use miralax and it works well.

I am on Tirzepatide - almost the same as Wegovy. Drinking plenty of water helps me the most.
