Sedative cause the constipation. so need to consult your docter for the less side effect medicine for the constipation. and do have high fiber diet, plenty of water too. if there is long time constipation, there might be infection on stool. so have stool routine examination. and currently u can take anti emetic like domperidone. which also helps in increase of bowel movement
