I took cascara for the first time last night, 1/4 a tsp before bed. After about an hour, I started getting euphoric tingling bodily sensations, but still didn't manage to sleep for many hours. Later on in the night I started getting pain in my bladder, liver, and chest area, very loud ringing tinnitus, and a dry mouth and intense thirst, which I quenched with some OJ and milk, and in general feeling very agitated hence unable to sleep.
This morning (sorry if too much information) I had an incredibly difficult to pass stool, which smelt strongly of sweet cow manure...
Could the side effects I experienced during the night have been a sort of caffeine like effect, where it was boosting my metabolism a bit too much?
Also, regarding safety, I was reading things about it being possibly liver toxic and just wanted to confirm that it's safe to take in lower than laxative doses for prolonged periods of time?
Thanks in advance!
