Hi,
Usually, the over the counter laxatives are used for constipation. These stop acting over a time, so dose is increased or new product is tried.
It’s ideal to know basic cause & manage to treat it along with medication.
The possible factors you should consider are-
* Good control of Diabetes with drugs & dietary control, life style changes.Diabetese reduces intestinal motility &causes constipation.
* To get stool examined for any pathology in it. Amebiasis,worm infestations , Digestive problems some auto immune disorders result in constipation. Abnormality found to be treated by an expert advice.
* Life style changes-
- Have diet with high fibers, (veges,fruits,salads,bran, Ispaghula )
- avoid fast foods, refined food, excessive eating.
-Drink lot of water(10 to 15 glasses in a day.),soups, juices, curd
milk
- A daily exercise schedule for 30 minutes-including abdominal
exercises, daily walk for 45 minutes.
- Cultivate a regular time & habit for motion .
- Drink Luke warm water with honey(1 tea spoon) + lemon juice.
* take cremafin 2to 4 t. spoons at bed time with hot water. & getting relief from it try to cultivate above said life style changes This should help you.
