Is Metamucil equivalent to Lax a day?

Metamucil and Lax a Day are both good laxatives that work gently and don't make the intestines lazy. It is generally safe to take them regularly, but it's best to confirm with your pharmacist. They contain different ingredients but work similarly by creating bulk in the intestines to promote bowel movements. If Metamucil works well for you, there's no need to switch. Those taking Lipitor may want to watch their intake of fatty foods. You can find heart-healthy recipes on the Heart and Stroke website.
