Can taking Excuse P, antibiotics, Augmentin Duo, and Zerodol P after a tooth extraction cause constipation for five days?
Yes, experiencing constipation after a tooth extraction is quite common. While pain medications like Zerodol P and Excuse P, along with antibiotics like Augmentin Duo, can upset your digestive tract, the primary causes are usually dietary changes, a lack of fiber from eating soft foods, and reduced fluid intake while healing. Please try to drink plenty of water and eat soft, fiber-rich foods like blended soups, smoothies, or oatmeal. If the constipation persists, causes severe pain, or does not improve in a couple of days, please reach out to your doctor or dentist for guidance.
