> Del Monte prunes in syrup (high in fiber) with yogourt for dessert for example (yogourt, choose the kinds with active bacteria, helps in keeping your intestinal flora healthy and doing its job). Add Metamucil to your orange juice in the morning. Eat oranges (not just the juice, but the fibers of the fruit too). Etc... Not all at once though, that could be a day to remember.

> I don't you should switch med just for that. Talk to your doc if need be, or your pharmacist, I am sure they have other ideas and you can find something that does not bother you too much. I eat prines and yogourt myself and I am on Effexor XR, 75 mg a day. Either for dessert at night, or for breakfast. I eat oranges too these days, they are sooo good!
