Can I take diuretics and laxatives at the same time

[nytebreid]

Ive had trouble doing anything bathroom related recently and each day have been feeling more and more bloated. Im looking to eleviate the problem but im not sure if its same to take both medications at once. Does anyone have any thoughts on this?
I meant "safe" not "same"

Doctors wouldn't recommend using these without doctor's advise. Diuretics may make you lose vital fluids in your body, which makes it not only ineffective but unhealthy. Laxatives are not any more effective than diuretics and they cause even more health problems. Using laxatives over long periods of time will also cause health problems such as chronic diarrhea, dehydration (which can lead to heart problems among other things), chronic constipation, bloating, severe abdominal pains, and vomiting.

While both substances are designed to eliminate waste from the body, the only material that is lost is fluid, so an individual may feel as though they have lost weight; however, this feeling is temporary, as the body will soon react and begin to retain water with 48 to 72 hours. As a result of this reactionary water retention, individuals often feel bloated, while furthermore experience feelings of weight gain.
