Hello,
Thank you for your query at DoctorSpring.com
I am Dr. R.K and I am pleased to assist you.
On intitiation of metamucil for the intitial few days, the bowel movement can be frequent for chronic constipated patients. It will eventually regularise your bowel and the frequency will come down to 1-2 times a day. But it is a good sign metamucil helped. Formed stool rules out chances of infection too.
Since you are passing formed stools with ease , with no blood or mucus, there is no need to worry and it is absolutely normal.
Yes continue taking metamucil and in a few days time your bowel movements will become completely normal.
Regards.
