I believe no as I found out 2 weeks ago that I was lactose intolerant and since I have stopped eating foods with lactose in them I have been constipated. Senna tablets have today cleared my 'blockage' but it wasn't pleasant. I believe that this has been the case because the lactose is no longer causing my diarrhea and so I have unfortunately gone 'the other way'. Good luck and if I find any more info I will let you know.
