hello doctor. I wanted to use softovac for stomach digestion problem. but, i have read that using softovac for long period of time will make our body use to it and ,,then stopping its use could be harmful. so,, i just wanted to know that for how much time can we use it safely without getting our body use to it.

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello. I have gone through your question. Softovac powder contains Ispaghula Husk which is a bulk-forming laxative, which means it soaks up water in your gut and makes bowel movements much easier. It is a natural thing and has benifits. There are no harmful effects if you stop taking it. I would suggest to 1TSF with a glass of water once a day. If you have any other queries/question please feel free to ask. Thanks and wish you a healthy life.
