Detailed Answer:
Hello. Thanks for putting your query in HCM.

I can understand your concerns.

First line treatment recommended for constipation is polyethylene glycol which comes in powder form. It is to be dissolved in water and is to be taken at night or morning depending upon the symptoms and response.

You may start with 13.8 gm of polyethyleneglycol XXXXXXX to be taken at night only or in morning depending upon the response. It is available in form of XXXXXXX of 13.8gm. and is available at OTC.

I hope I have answered your query and this will help you. If you have any further query I will be happy to answer that too. Remain in touch and get-well soon.
