When I first tried Zelnorm, my doc said to take 1/2 of a 6mg pill 2 x daily. The 1/2 pill gave me those excruciating cramps & horrible D. I stopped taking the Zelnorm, but then tried 1/4 a pill once a day. No cramps or D, but sometimes it didn't work either. Now, I take Miralax every day & then take 1/4 Zelnorm pill just as needed (which isn't very often). That seems to work for me.

When I was on vacation a couple weeks ago, I took 1/2 a Zelnorm pill before bed & in the morning because I'd gotten very C. That (along with Miralax) did the trick. I went "potty" with NO cramps and NO D. (Ironically I'd been having pain & discomfort BEFORE taking the Zelnorm)

I'm sorry you went through such pain. That's horrible.
