Golbi 300 and constipation
Hi, my GP prescribed me Golbi 300 once ever since then i m severely constipated I m also on thyronorm but never had this issue. I took ishabgol too but incase i forget i get no movement the next day. So, he said golbi once isnt sufficient he upped the dose to twice daily and added livoluk but my reports werent that bad.
I never had any issue before, i eat clean balanced diet with good amount of veggies and protein.
I m attaching my report. I dont know what else to do, i used to poop everyday now i have to strain yet i feel full.

Constipation is a known side effect of Golbi 300 (UDCA), and it can become troublesome especially when the dose is increased. Since your reports weren't severely abnormal, it's worth discussing with your doctor whether the current dose is truly necessary or if there's a lower dose that balances benefit without the side effects.
Next Steps
Continue with ispaghula and the laxative as prescribed, and follow up with your doctor to reassess the need for the current dose. Please consult me directly on Practo for a detailed evaluation.
