constipation
"I had mild constipation and took 2 Dulcolax pills at about 8 p.m.  Normal dose for children and adults is 1-3 tablets.  I woke up at 10:30 p.m. with severe burning and cramps in my stomach.  I also felt very nauseous.  I had to get out of bed and run back and forth to the bathroom for 3 hours with severe abdominal pain and cramping.  By 1:30 a.m. I was able to sleep but still uncomfortable.  It is about 8:00 a.m. now and I just took immodium to stop the diarrhea.  I will never take this drug again and certainly would advise against giving it to small adults or children."
