How long does cisapride take to work?

Doughnut is throat rubbing and constipated after having two lots of cisapride. She hasn't done any poops since at least 7 am today. It must all come out soon!
 
It can take a several hours. I can remember last year when Smokey had GI stasis she was given cisapride by the vet at about 9am and didn't eat until about 4pm.

Has she seen a vet? If not, I would take her to the emergency vet today to get her checked out.

Lots of vibes,

I think I've worked out it may well be the alfalfa which is giving her constipation. So already withdrawn her SS pellets in favour of the vet care ones now withdrawing the alfalfa hay which I was told to give her to keep up her weight. Will see what happens now!
