  4. Health Queries for Laxopeg Powder 119 gm

  5. My daughter is 1 year and 6 months old, and she has been suffering from constipation since birth. She has been given several medicines such as Laxopeg and Sorbiline in the past. Recently, I started giving her raisin water early in the morning on an empty stomach, and she was doing better for some time. However, for the last 3 days, her constipation problem has returned again. Could you please suggest any safe medicine, home remedies, dietary changes, or further evaluation that may help relieve her constipation?

Since her constipation has persisted since birth, a pediatric evaluation is crucial to rule out underlying conditions like Hirschsprung's disease. You may safely restart Laxopeg under your doctor's guidance, as it is safe for toddlers. Diet-wise, increase her water intake and offer high-fiber 'P' fruits: prunes, pears, peaches, and plums. Limit cow's milk, apples, and bananas, which can worsen constipation. Raisin water is fine, but whole dietary fiber is better. Please consult her pediatrician before starting any new medications.
