Citrucel, like all fibre supplements should be increased slowly - which it sounds like you're doing. Signs of problems would include cramping, gas, pain, diarrhea. This can happen because citrucel contains psyllium - which a lot of people can't tolerate. If your daughter has problems with it, lots of people have had better luck with Equalactin or Heather's Acacia.



Actually, Han, I think you're thinking of Metamuccil. I'm pretty sure Citrucel isn't psyllium, and it's a supplement that's usually pretty well tolerated.
