    I'm looking online and I saw some forum posts that scared me, they had to do with taking Dulcolax stool softener, (I took three today) and taking Vitamin C and I was a couple of them say they no longer walk, help!

    Why did you take three Dulcolax today? You are to take only one a day.

    From the Dulcolax site:"Do not take bisacodyl within 1 hour after drinking or eating dairy products."

    Calcium is from dairy.

    I took about 6000 miligrams of Vitamin C, "C", meaning ascorbic acid, I took this supplement with the last pill.

    Sorry. I read it wrong. But why three Dulcolax?

    And why so much C?

    It's okay, thank you. I took three cause that's what the bottle said. And I always take vitamin C like this, I always have, also I'm getting over a urinary tract infection as well.

    I saw your sayings, I have an animal but I'm so scared because of some posts in a forum online I saw. Also, I'm 47 years old. I don't really act it obviously, hoping I also still don't look it :)
