Can constipation be a side effect of Sulpiride?
For 2 weeks I have been taking Sulpiride 50 mg 1 once a day, according to the instructions of the gastrologist at bedtime. After a week from the start of taking, constipation began to bother me, and now the complete lack of pressure and bowel movements. I only force with great effort bobtail stools-2.3 balls. Could this be a side effect of the drug? Lactulose does not help. Please let me know. Yours sincerely.

According to the Summary of Product Characteristics, constipation is not a reported side effect of Supiryd: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/98596/sulpiryd-hasco-tabletki/ulotka/246052 Since you mentioned that the medicine was recommended by a gastrologist, you may be observing an exacerbation of the underlying disease rather than a side effect of the medicine. Especially since the dose used in gastrology is very small. A pharmacist within his competence can offer over-the-counter constipation remedies, which we wrote about here: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/zaparcia From experience I will say that gastrologists very often recommend preparations based on macrogols, e.g. https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/50436/duphagol-moxalole-proszek-do-wytworzenia-plynu/apteki https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/84600/xenna-balance-proszek-do-wytworzenia-plynu/apteki or soda douching, eg. https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/80450/ulgix-laxi-kapsulki/apteki I also encourage you to read the article: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/zaparcia-jak-z-nimi-walczyc
I also take sulpird for 2 weeks, but according to the instructions, 2 times a day in the morning lunch, and also terrible constipation, although I have chron, colitis,
I take sulpiride hasco 600. Constipation terrible. All the time on laxatives. And these do not always give advice.
