Prune Juice

Any one have any idea how long it takes for prune juice to take effect and what the results would be? I want something with a delayed laxative effect but with out the cramps of traditional laxatives or castor oil and not something that is too fast like an enema or suppository. Any suggestions?

Castor oil is extremely effect and fast acting, but tastes awful, it's like drinking peanut oil.

Milk of Magnesia is good and fast, but it will give you runny diarrhea all day after the initial mess. but it's bad for cramping.

Epsom salt has little cramping and works fast.

I have not tried prune juice yet.

More info on different laxatives can be found in this post http://www.zity.biz/index.php?mx=forum;ox=display;topic=35124.0

Have been made to try partiality dehydrated prunes soaked in milk and rum which gave me tummy ache for about an hour but the relief when I pooped was amazing but the smell of the poopy was so yucky that mummy was calling me princess poopoo.

How much prune juice do you take and do you take it on an empty stomach?

Prunes and prune juice never do much for me. I use orlestat for weight control and this creates a laxative effect similar to mineral oil. Some days I can go whenever I choose. I prevents absorption of up to a third of the oil and fat intake.

Wearing a diaper, drinking prune juice and then letting nature take its course; wow, that sounds like fun!

Prune juice is great...I add it to every bottle I drink...mix it with formula, milk, etc. Keeps my diaper full without too much cramping.

I was not given prune juice, but actual prunes. If I remember correctly, it takes a while and does not give a stomach ache. You just poop softer and easier. It's mild.

I drink prune juice sometimes when I cant do enemas at that moment due to timing. I rather do enemas but prune juice works well for me too...just takes longer. I cramp a little when the prunes take there full effect probably because I am backed up from not pooping for a couple of days and the prune juice makes me shit~alot...What a relief.

I've never tried prune juice, but it and stewed pruned used to be a common thing for the older generation. There's a lot of fiber there. I'm sure it makes a difference in timing if the stomach is empty. Also, my recollection is that folks used prunes and prune juice more as a way to stay regular than to clear a constipated bowel.

If I want something by mouth to produce the effect, I'd opt for a couple very large dill pickles. If you like pickles, it is like taking a saline laxative in something you enjoy eating.

That's right Quincy. A large sushi meal will too because of the salt from the soy sauce. Goes through you like a dose of salts.

I've asked my wife, who was given prune juice, and she does not remember unpleasant feelings (to be fair, her mom had the approach to both give an oral laxative and some water enema so it's difficult to judge individual effects).

If what you are interested in is punishment, then maybe you just want the psychological effect.

When I was a child, I had an ambivalent relationship to glycerin suppositories. Sure, if I had a hard time pooping, getting one would ease my problem. On the other hand, this meant getting one from mom, then getting questioned if it had been efficient, possibly getting another one the next day... This "being made to poop on mom's orders" was humiliating.

So indeed, just getting prune juice and being asked about bowel movements might be punishment. ;-)

A glass of room temperature prune juice provides an excellent clean out

For me, taking prunes or prune juice will have terrible effects in my intestines. Being accustomed to the taste of castor oil since long years - really, this is exclusively a problem to get used to this -, I prefer to swallow 2 oz castor oil, this early in the morning, not having breakfasted. One to two hours later the bowel movement will begin irresistibly.

Prune juice was my Mom's "first line of defense." A small glass slightly warmed usually worked with two to three hours, and I don't remember having much cramping.

Prune juice versus castor oil ? I'll take the juice any day even if it's not terribly effective. Castor oil is the worst! ???

A lady friend was visiting with me and her four year old daughter was with her. We were in the living room talking and her girl asked if she could have some fruit. I thought nothing of it when my friend nodded yes so I told her daughter to have as much as she wanted of the fruit in the crisper drawer at the bottom of the refrigerator.

A half hour later my lady friend got up to make some coffee and called to me, "Steve, what do you have in your crisper?" Not thinking I said just some fruit. "You have to come here and see what my girl has gotten into."

When I walked into the kitchen I saw a large canister of prunes open on the table. I could not remember how much had been in the canister but it was half empty now.

My friend was smiling as I sat at the table and asked her little girl if she liked the fruit she was eating. "It tastes funny but I like it because it is chewy." she told me.

I glanced at my friend again and then turned to her daughter and asked "How many of these have you eaten?" She smiled and pointed to the side of the canister and said it had been up to her finger when she started. "I think that you have had enough for now," I said, covering the canister.

"Can I have some more the next time I visit?" the four year old asked completely sincerely.

"Sure," I told her, now come to the living room with your mother and watch the TV while we have our coffee. My lady friend sat on the sofa near me so we could talk quietly while her daughter watched cartoons. "You know that she is going to have a little reaction to that many prunes, don't you?"'

My friend laughed and said "No harm done, we will be home for the rest of the day and my daughter will be busy and out of my hair. How long do you think it will take for the prunes to kick in?

"Since she was drinking water with the prunes I would guess about two hours, maybe less. I think it is best if she is home where she knows how to use the potty."

I got a call later that day from my lady friend. "My daughter is back in the bathroom for the fourth time. Actually I'm glad she ate the prunes; she was constipated and I thought I would have to give her a suppository or an enema but that won't be needed now. I'll call you later and you can tell me how many prunes she can have for just a "normal" reaction."

2 tall glasses of warm prune juice start working in 2-3 hours... terrible gas and then urgency with some (little) cramping...

8 ounces of warm prune juice will work on most people. The amount of cramping and urgency depends upon the person.

Dose prune juice take oraly or can you put it in a enema bag

Yes Prune juice at time mut mother loved to put us over her lap for enemas , But she used to put in my lunnch for school was prunes 3 to 5 I eat like the to eat them not knowing what they did no one every said anything to me at lunch.

I happen to like prunes, and eat five or six daily. I haven't tried prune juice, but do think the prunes help getting a BM.

So over the past few days I have been in the eyes of my wife eyes having too many temper tantrums. It was surrounding not be changed into a new diaper fast enough. She had become to be quite upset at me. Stating that she cannot always stop what she is doing to change me. of course I was not allowed to change my own for fear of a spanking.

My wife in last night meal added a special item to my dinner. Unbeknownst to me it was prunes and allot them. It was smashed up in my food and i could not see it. But about 2 hours later the effects took place and it was not fun.
