Hello,
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
Piclin laxative is a laxative used in the treatment of constipation; it prevents dry and hard stools.
You can use to treat the constipation of your child.
I also suggest to give your child a fiber rich diet and drink liquids.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
