How can I treat long-term constipation with a non-habit-forming laxative, and is Zandu Nityam safe to use without becoming dependent on it?

Asked by Female, 39 · 16 days ago

Zandu Nityam contains ingredients like senna, which is a stimulant laxative. While helpful for occasional use, regular use of stimulants can lead to dependency. For safe, non-habit-forming long-term relief, bulk-forming laxatives like psyllium husk or osmotic laxatives like polyethylene glycol are much safer options. They work naturally by drawing water into your bowel. Alongside these, increasing your daily water intake, eating more fiber, and gentle exercise will support your digestion. Please consult a doctor to tailor the best plan for you.
