Frequent use of laxatives in use for weight loss may become addictive. The body and mind may become dependent upon the laxatives to produce bowel motility. More damaging, may be the results of laxative overuse, such as malnutrition, dehydration and electrolyte imbalance. It is best to only use laxatives for occasional treatment of constipation and not as a weight loss method.


Can you get addicted to laxatives?

Laxatives can be addictive, however, not in the same way as a narcotic drug or cigarettes. The more you use laxatives the more your bowel movements will become dependent on them. A bottle may recommend taking only 2 tablets. However, after prolonged use, you will have to take more for them to work. Fairly soon you will be taking handfuls and up to a few bottles of laxatives in order to have a bowel movement. With prolonged use you will become completely dependent on laxatives in order to have a bowel movement, and you can cause yourself to become constipated permanently.
