Morning News (Reporter Qi Lin) Eating drugs for constipation can help you lose weight. Xiaoya (pseudonym), a 25-year-old woman, started taking constipation medicine a year ago, but she didn't expect to have constipation symptoms. When I went to the hospital for a check-up, the peristalsis of large intestine was more than 2/3 slower than that of normal people. After graduating from college, Xiaoya entered a public institution in Yuzhong District and sat in the office every day. She is worried that her figure will go out of shape. More than a year ago, I overheard a friend say that if you take constipation medicine immediately after meals, food can be excreted outside the intestine before nutrients are absorbed by the intestine, so that you won't get fat. Xiaoya began to buy medicine and take it every day. "It worked at first." Xiaoya said that constipation symptoms gradually appeared, and the amount of constipation drugs increased from the initial two or three to more than a dozen. Last month, Xiaoya found it difficult to defecate. When she went to the hospital for examination, the doctor told her to stop taking medicine quickly, because her large intestine peristalsis was more than 2/3 slower than that of normal people. Professor Wang Rongquan, director of the Department of Gastroenterology, Southwest Hospital, said "three poisons of drugs". Some constipation drugs are based on the principle of promoting intestinal peristalsis to treat diseases. Long-term use will lead to dependence and even loss of large intestine function.
