Active clinical trials for "Constipation"

Supporting the pelvic floor can reduce symptoms of constipation in patients with refractory constipation due to pelvic floor laxity and excessive perineal descent by means of a modified toilet seat, known as "the Bottom's Up".

The purpose of this study is to evaluate a daily dose of BLI400 Laxative for safety and efficacy versus lubiprostone in constipated adults.

This phase 3, 12-week, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multi-center study will evaluate the safety and efficacy of tenapanor in subjects with constipation-predominant irritable bowel syndrome (IBS-C) as defined by the ROME III criteria and who have active disease as determined after a two-week screening period. Subjects who qualify and are randomized into the study will either receive 50mg BID of tenapanor or placebo BID for 12 week treatment period and then undergo a 4 week placebo controlled randomized withdrawal.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of olive oil and flaxseed oil in the treatment of constipation of patients undergoing hemodialysis.

In recent years, there has been an emphasis on the creation of "enhanced-recovery", "fast-track" or "multi-modal" pathways to improve perioperative care (1-4). The goal of these programs is to reduce the length of hospital stay, decrease narcotic usage while improving pain control, accelerate post-operative recovery, and expedite return to baseline functional status. Pathways often are developed by a team of surgeons, nurses, pain specialists, anesthesiologists and other support staff. Postoperative components often involve multi-modal analgesia, early return to activity and early return to a regular diet. The goal of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of a multi-modal pain regimen in advanced pelvic surgery with a primary goal of decreasing narcotic usage.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate safety and tolerability as well as the effects of RM-131 on colonic transit, bowel consistency, bowel habits, abdominal pain, and other abdominal symptoms in patients with chronic constipation.

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of IQP-PO-101 in regulating the bowel movement frequency

The purpose of this study is to confirm that the investigational medication, plecanatide, is safe and effective in treating chronic idiopathic constipation.

The objective of this study is to evaluate if consumption of fermented milk containing Lactobacillus casei strain Shirota has an impact on stool consistency, stool frequency, constipation-related symptoms, and quality of life in subjects who frequently have hard or lumpy stools.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the effect and safety of NKTR-118 treatment of opioid-induced constipation in patients with non-cancer-related pain, including those patients that have inadequate response to laxative therapy (LIR).
