Brief Answer:
polyethylene glycol

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Seems that you have chronic constipation.

I would suggest to take polyethylene glycol with water. The dose can be gradually increased till you get adequate bowel movements.

If this does not help lubiprostone tablets are an alternative.
You'll need a prescription from your doctor for these

Hope this helps
Do get back in case you have further queries
