Hi...except breast milk any of the formula milk can cause constipation.

Rather than suggesting a formula I will suggest you a diet and a plan to relieve his constipation.

Suggestions:
1. Natural methods are the best to relieve constipation.
2. Maximum milk consumption per day should not exceed 300-400ml
3. Minimum 3-4 cups of fruits and vegetables to be consumed per day

Hope my answer was helpful for you. I am happy to help any time. Further clarifications and consultations on Health care magic are welcome. If you do not have any clarifications, you can close the discussion and rate the answer. Wish your kid good health.
