I have seen that a lot of people that have bowel issues take Nullo. I have a few questions.

Will it cause constipation?

Does it contain coconut? (Big issue as I am allergic)

How long does it take to work?

Is it cost-effective?

Any information you have would be great.

Thanks.

They definitely can cause constipation when used in the higher doses. I found the highest recommended dosage to be necessary to adequately suppress fecal odor.

It requires several days to become completely effective.

I used Nullo on long vacation cruises and found it to be very effective.

Cost-effective depends on what you intend to use it for. I was concerned about being in close quarters with others (such as on a ship's tender ferrying back and forth to a port). It was worth it.

Normally I do not use Nullo but would again for similar needs.

Google "Nullo" and you will find all the information you need.

I have switched to Devrom, because our local pharmacy no longer carries Nullo. As for ingredients that may give you difficulty, check the label before you make your purchase. I take an internal deodorant only with normal meals; I omit them when I take a liquid meal, which is necessary several times each week. Good luck.

not sure about ingredients. I use the Clorofresh tabs. not very cheap for sure. 90 day supply is about 30 bucks 2x90 bottles.
as far as effectiveness I have only seen reductions in odor. mainly vastly lowering the strength of odor. I could probably use more
and get better results but then I have the cost\benefit thing to think about . I can usually cleanup within 15mins at most so I have had very few incidents
where 15 mins was not enough time. quick cleanups and using plastic backed briefs with garywear seems to give me the time needed.,
I found the best thing to happen was when I was at my worst with covid and about 90 days or so after. I could not smell a thing LOL.
