Is it safe for an 80-year-old with high blood pressure and diabetes who uses insulin to regularly take Nityam tablets or Kayam Churan for ongoing constipation?
While Nityam tablets and Kayam Churna can offer temporary relief, regular use is not recommended for you. These formulations contain stimulant laxatives like senna and can have high salt content, which may affect your blood pressure, kidney function, and hydration levels, especially alongside your diabetes and insulin. Please consult your doctor. They can recommend safer, gentle alternatives like dietary fiber adjustments or gentle osmotic laxatives that won't interfere with your health conditions or medications.
