[QUOTE="cugila, post: 131695, member: 15325"] Susie. You should always discuss ANY medications with a Pharmacist or your GP when on Byetta. The Boot's natural laxative may be OK as it acts on the Colon whilst the stomach and small intestine are not normally affected by it. I had to take a laxative whilst I was on Radiotherapy treatment recently. There were several laxatives which I could not take, mainly due to the sugar content, and was eventually prescribed Movicol which uses a sweetener. This was prescribed by my GP and Consultant after some discussion. That had to be taken last thing at night when no Byetta was around and was very effective the next morning......... :shock: As for feeling low about the weight.......if it makes you feel any better after a recent holiday I too put on 7 lbs.....too much good food !! After getting back home and being strict with my diet again I have lost it all within a week or so. So don't feel low.....it will go if you work at it. :D Ken [/QUOTE]
