A client confides that she is taking laxatives to help her lose weight. What is the best course of action

Sagot :

Recommend that she slowly stops using laxatives. Taking her straight off them while she’s had longterm usage can cause bowel obstructions and dietary issues. Probably see her again in a couple weeks and come up with a healthy diet/exercise plan and stick to it.
