Article: Constipation is the number one most prevalent side effect of opioid medications, affecting 80% of people who are prescribed opioid drugs. It is for this reason that medical treatment is always offered for constipation upfront at the same time as the opioid prescription is initiated. It is also easier to treat potential constipation prophylactically (preventatively), as opposed to allowing it to develop into a serious problem which in turn can make it more difficult to resolve. Everyone offered an opioid medication will also be offered a daily stool softening regimen. An example would be taking Docusate twice daily and Senna once daily in order to maintain your normal bowels.  Your doctor will adjust the doses and choices of your stool softening medications depending on how they are working for you. The goal ultimately is to maintain your bowels at the same frequency that you were having them prior to starting the opioid. For example, if your normal is one bowel movement per day, the goal would be to maintain this even after starting the opioid, Your doctor will tailor your stool softening medications to help you achieve this goal. In addition to medications, there are also a number of lifestyle strategies you can use to keep your bowels moving as easily as possible while on the opioid medication. These include:  Eating plenty of fibre. Fibre helps to bulk up your stool and allows it to pass more easily. The recommended daily amount is 20–35 g/day. Drink plenty of fluids. Staying well-hydrated with at least eight to 10 8-oz glasses of water per day (and more with exercise) is key to helping your bowels stay soft and mobile. Get regular exercise. Staying physically active with at least five exercise sessions of 30 minutes or more per week helps not only with your overall health, but also with passing your stools and keeping your gut healthy. Try moving your bowels after a meal. There is a natural increase in colonic motility after meals, which may help. Colonic activity appears to be highest in the morning, so try going to the bathroom right after breakfast. Having a cup of coffee or other beverage with caffeine at breakfast may help with this. If the first line stool softening methods and lifestyle strategies are insufficient to keep your bowels moving at a healthy pace, your doctor may suggest other medical alternatives to help treat your constipation. These may include:  Milk of Magnesia The addition of an "osmotic laxative" such as Polyethylene glycol A medication called Methylnaltrexone for severe constipation Enemas and suppositories may be recommended as a last resort

Problem: Article: Start by considering the specimens you are trying to identify and insert into a dichotomous key. Note characteristics that define the things you are looking at, and start listing them out.   If you are trying to create a dichotomous key for a series of animals, you might see that some have feathers, some swim, some walk on legs, etc. For example, if you are trying to differentiate a set of big cats, you might note that some are brown, some are black, some have stripes, some have spots, some have long tails, some have short tails, and so on. A dichotomous key works by the process of elimination, so you want to note characteristics that can be used to differentiate the things you are examining. For example, if some of the specimens you are looking at have feathers but others have fur, then “feathers” is a good distinguishing characteristics.  However, a trait all of the animals share is not a good distinguishing factor. For example, since all big cats are warm-blooded, you wouldn't want to use that trait on your dichotomous key. You want to create a dichotomous key based on increasingly specific differentiations, so you’ll have to order the characteristics of your specimens from general to specific. This will help divide your specimens ever-smaller groups. For instance:   When making your dichotomous key for big cats, you may find that some of the cats you are analyzing have dark fur, and some have light fur. You may also see that all of them have short hair. Finally, you see that some of them have long tails, but some of them have no tails at all. You would start your key with a question/statement about fur color. You wouldn’t need to ask a question about fur length, since all of the examples have short fur. You would follow up with a question about tail length, since tails are not common to all of the cats, and therefore are a less general characteristic.
Summary: List the characteristics of your specimens. Look for principles of exclusion. Determine the most general characteristics.

If the site that you're trying to access is blocked specifically on your computer, you may be able to access it by using the website's mobile version, IP address, or Google Translate. In the event that you're unable to access websites that are blocked on your Internet connection, however, you'll need to use a VPN. VPNs can be difficult to install on monitored or controlled computers (e.g., library, school, or work machines); however, if you use a personal computer for work, you should be able to install the VPN while on your own wireless network. Many websites, such as Facebook and YouTube, have mobile alternatives that can be visited by typing "m." between the "www." section of the website's address and the website's name. Many blocking services do not account for the mobile versions of blocked sites. For example, you would access the mobile version of Facebook by going to "https://www.m.facebook.com/" in your browser. You can find a website's IP address, which is its raw numerical address, on any major computer platform, after which point you can enter the IP address into the browser's URL bar the same way that you'd search for a regular address (e.g., "https://www.google.com/").  This won't work for all websites; some services hide their IP addresses, and others use multiple IP addresses which aren't always reliable. If you don't have access to Command Prompt (Windows) or Terminal (Mac) on the computer on which sites are blocked, you can use a personal computer on an unrestricted network to find the IP address and then just use the address on your restricted computer. This method doesn't always work, but it provides a simple alternative to using a proxy site or a portable browser:  Go to https://translate.google.com/ in your browser. Type your website's address into the left text box. Select any language other than the website's original language for the right-most box. Click the website's link in the right-most box. Click the "Go to [Website]" link on the left side of the page if the website doesn't immediately load. Click the Translate option if prompted. Browse your site. The Wayback Machine site allows you to browse past versions of websites without actually going to the site in question. This won't help if you're attempting to check your Facebook feed, but you can use the Wayback Machine to view blocked research resources and the like.  Go to https://archive.org/web/ in your computer's browser. Enter a website's address into the text field that's near the top of the page. Click BROWSE HISTORY  Select a calendar day. Review the results. on a personal computer. Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) are always-on subscription services that route your Internet traffic through several different servers in different countries or locations. This effectively hides your Internet activity from anyone monitoring it, which likewise allows you to view sites and use services which are usually blocked in your area.  Most VPNs require a paid subscription, though some VPNs—such as Hotspot Shield—have a free version. In order for your VPN to remain undetected, it must be on the entire time that you're online.
