Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My husband and I take care of my 82 year old fatherinlaw who has heart issues and dementia. This evening he has been stopped up and seen some bleeding. He recently started Eloquis. I know I need to contact the dr in the morning over the concerns, but I was wondering if he could take dulcolax for now
The bleeding problem may be due to piles or hemorrhoids. According to my experience, Dulcolax would not be a problem. But kindly take a nearby doctor visit.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Nirav Nimavat
