Trulance is a prescription medication used to treat chronic idiopathic constipation (CIC) and irritable bowel syndrome with constipation (IBS-C) in adults. It contains the active ingredient plecanatide, which works by stimulating the production of fluids in the intestines and promoting bowel movements. Trulance is known as a guanylate cyclase-C agonist and helps to relieve constipation by binding to receptors in the intestines and stimulating the natural secretions that improve bowel movements.

Trulance is taken orally in the form of a tablet and should be used as directed by a healthcare provider. It increases the action of receptors in the digestive tract that help move stool through more quickly.

Trulance comes in tablet form and is taken orally, with or without food, as directed by a doctor once a day. If you have difficulty swallowing the tablet, you can crush and mix it with a teaspoonful of room-temperature applesauce and swallow the mixture right away. Take Trulance consistently and exactly as prescribed by creating a dosing schedule to avoid missing any doses. Do not change your dosage or stop taking Trulance abruptly without consulting with your doctor to avoid worsening conditions.

Trulance is taken orally in the form of a tablet and as directed by a healthcare provider. The usual recommended dose is 3 milligrams once daily.
