User questions & answers

Question:	This one, is very strong. the blue box of ducolax is more tolerable. right
Answer:	The blue box is the stool softener, so it doesn’t usually cause the discomfort that the normal Dulcolax stimulant laxative will. If you want a gentler laxative, try the pink Dulcolax. It’s for women but the effects aren’t as strong (i.e. cramps and discomfort).
Question:	Will this make me shart
Answer:	Yes. To some degree. You can feel it churning your stomach moving toward an exit. Drink coffee, or water.
Question:	Why are there a thousand inactive ingredients? every one of them is a risk of gluten cross contamination for me. anyone with celiack ok with these
Answer:	This product caused me a celiac crisis. My digestive track seized-up after taking two and I ended up in the ER. I ended up in surgery only to find out there was no physical blockage only a chemical one. I would try something else.
Question:	I was on site where 80% of reviews were 1 star due to extreme cramps. How about you guys
Answer:	I’ve had extremely bad cramps with this but every time I have cramps with this I use the bathroom within 15 mins and I feel fine after. But sometimes the cramps are so bad I sometime wish I didn’t take it

User questions & answers

Question:	What is the expiration date of this product
Answer:	The power supply for this IR floodlight puts out 12v DC, at 1 Amp Max. To make this unit portable, you have to have a 12 volt Source, such as a lithium ion battery pack, and an LED driver putting out 12 volts at the rated amperage for this light.
Question:	How much dicalcium phosphate per tablet? i have ckd and must limit my phosphates
Answer:	Mine came with a 2 amp power supply. The sticker on the back of the light says it pulls 8 watts which equates to .66 amps. So even a one amp supply should be fine.
Question:	When is the expiration date
Answer:	You need to check the wavelength of the IR LEDs before you buy these lights. If they aren’t the same as your camera they won’t work at all. If they are the same , then you can either buy these Illuminators in wide angle which will light up a wider area but not as much distance, or a spot illuminated which will give you the needed distance.
Question:	Where is this product manufactured
Answer:	It's a 2.1mm x 5.5mm barrel plug

User questions & answers

Question:

are these individually wrapped

Answer:

NJ on the label is simply "Distributed by" and says nothing about manufacture. The website for Pioneer Life Sciences goes on about "manufacturing facilities" but does not say where they are. In fact, nothing on the bottles or on the website says anything about where the product is made. Personally, as a consumer, I'm more interested in who the manufacturer is than who the distributor is. "Who we are" on the Pioneer website talks about the "firm initiated by a group of experts" but gives no names. Given that another business website says Pioneer has 3 employees, it must be a small "group of experts."

Question:	Can you grow tolerance on this? I recently found out developed tolerance on Moralax, and it doesn't work for anymore
Answer:	No, no wrapping at all
Question:	Expiration Date
Answer:	Mine said 12/21, but I am taking 3-4 a day to counteract the side effects of chemo meds, so I wasn't worried about that, since I will use a significant amount of them. But at this price you could afford to throw them away when they expire.
Question:	Does It Contain Milk
Answer:	Dibasic Calcium Phosphate Dihydrate is the "second" inactive ingredient. It does not list its amount contained. NOR is it listed anywhere on the internet...weird right?
Question:	The current date is 7/19. What is the expiration date
Answer:	Expiration is 9/20
