okay so i finally took some stool softeners and some lax to clear out my stomach. however my stomach is rumbling now and i'm a bit concerned. I feel like i don't need to poop anymore because it cleared out my stomach and i recently ate something, but my stomach is still rumbling. Could this be a sign of theres more poop in my track or could this be a symptom from the stool softener? if it helps, the softener i'm taking is docusate sodium and the laxative i'm taking is Lactulose-Pharma. Please if anyone has an idea let me know.

    It is a general problem of all the laxatives that will work directly in the intestines by irritating them. Exclusively castor oil works indirectly in the intestines by activating and synthesizing certain substances in the human body. So in no case a habituation of the human body or a reduced laxative effect by swallowing castor oil will be possible.
