How To Treat Constipation And Blurred Vision And Irregular Heartbeat?

I have been taking Spiriva for a month now, I have severe or persistent constipation, sometimes for 3-4 days, which is my biggest concern. But also am having problems with blurred vision and irregular heartbeat which doesn t happen as frequently. I have allergic reactions to other drugs, is this a drug I will have to put on that list or is it a workable solution or is there any other drug that will benefit me without these side effects.....? Got to the 3rd step and realized it was false advertising........didn t realize there was a fee........nevermind~

Hi,
Welcome to health care magic,

Constipation could be of many reasons like improper food intake,disturbed bacterial flora or any parasite infestations or drug induced.

For,blurred vision and irregular heart rate you see eye specialist and physician respectively if they are persistent and not relieved by any means.

If you are taking medicines spiriva then it could also be due to drug reaction and which is causing this constipation then you should stop taking those further.

You should start light food with high fiber diet like salads(cucumber, cabbage, carrots).

You may also take laxatives or purgative like syrup cremaffin plus in night time to have effortless bowel evacuation.

Consult your treating physician for whole treatment.
