Is it safe to give Gerbisa L to a 2-year-old child every day for over a month to treat constipation?

Asked by Female, 2 · 13 days ago

I understand how concerning it can be to manage constipation in your little one. Gerbisa L contains lactulose, which is generally safe for toddlers. However, giving any laxative daily for over a month to a two-year-old should always be supervised by a pediatrician. Long-term use needs careful monitoring to ensure it is safe for her and to find the root cause of her constipation. I gently recommend consulting her pediatrician to discuss the best long-term plan, which may also include simple dietary changes like more fluids and fiber.
