Hello dear
Yes you can use Duphalac for treating constipation.
Initial dose should be around 10-15ml with half cup of water to be taken at bed time,However dose can be increased or decreased as per the response of your body,For example if stools become too soft at 15ml dose make it 10ml or vice versa.
However for long term relief from constipation i would suggest you to follow strict dietary and life style modification.
Try to take a lot of fibrous fruits and vegetables in your diet,Drink luke warm lime water a glass early in morning.Eat healthy and fresh food.
Thanks
