Linaclotide functions locally in the intestinal lumen, activating guanylate cyclase-C, stimulating fluid secretion, and increasing GI transit, which potentially mitigates the constipating effects of opioids on the GI tract.
The most common regime for OIC is a stimulant (senna/bisacodyl) with or without a stool softener (docusate), or daily administration of an osmotic laxative (polyethylene glycol). Stool softeners are ideal for preventing constipation; they do not work well for established cases of constipation[15].
Peripherally selective opioid antagonists are an option for the treatment of postoperative ileus. Methylnaltrexone (Relistor) and alvimopan (Entereg) are approved by the Food and Drug Administration.
The opioid antagonist naloxegol (Movantik) is now approved to treat opioid-induced constipation in adults with chronic noncancer pain. The most common adverse effects are abdominal pain, diarrhea, nausea, flatulence, vomiting, and headache.
Naldemedine is recommended, within its marketing authorisation, as an option for treating opioid-induced constipation in adults who have had laxative treatment.

NICE clinical guideline 140 recommends that laxative treatment is taken regularly at an effective dose for people initiating strong opioids. When oral laxative therapy is ineffective at producing a bowel movement, a suppository or enema may be appropriate.
Fiber is the laxative most doctors recommend for normal and slow-transit constipation. Abdominal cramping, bloating, or gas can occur when abruptly increasing or changing your dietary fiber intake. Fiber is naturally available in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains (especially wheat bran).
If your constipation is severe and does not improve with changes to your diet and lifestyle, there may be other options that you can discuss with your doctor. Surgery is the very last option. A wide range of laxatives are available, plus there are pro-motility drugs that a doctor can prescribe.
