Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 4 m old boy2 years agoA. that medicine is for colic pain and not for constipation
at this age the child should pass stool regularly.
if the consistency is hard and the child is having pain while passing stool it is considered as constipation.
give plenty of water and fibre diet to the child
it is important to give fibre diet from cereals pulses vegetables and fruits
avoid giving more than 400 ml milk everyday and avoid giving packet and processed foods as well as biscuits and refined food
adding papaya , fennel seeds water , oats pear prunes pineapple banana kishmish to the regular diet will help in decreasing constipation.

It’s basically for stomach pain only but if you want you can give it if it helps in relieving constipation to the child then there is no problem otherwise in certain cases when the situation is not in your control you can put an anima into the anus of the child that really helps a child pass motion within 3 to 5 hours
