Laxative – Dreaming about a laxative is never a pleasant experience, especially if you have taken the laxative in your dream. Many times this dream symbolizes that you have eaten something that disagrees with you. It might also mean that you have irritable bowel syndrome. Rarely does it mean that you need to purge something from your system, but this is another interpretation for this dream. Most often this particular symbol is a direct and mirror representation of something that is going on in your gut.
