Dear Patient,
Excessive gas with constipation is common and usually occurs due to slow bowel movement, low fiber intake, less water, or sedentary lifestyle. It is good that gas is improving with Pantocid DSR, but constipation may need additional support.
What you can do:
Continue Isabgol at night with a full glass of warm water, drink 2–3 liters water daily, increase fiber (salad, papaya, guava, soaked raisins, vegetables), do 30–40 minutes walking daily, and maintain a fixed toilet routine after meals.
If constipation still persists, you may take a stool softener for a few days like Lactulose syrup (Duphalac) 15–20 ml at bedtime or PEG powder in water at night. These are safe for short-term use.
Consult me if severe abdominal pain, vomiting, blood in stool, weight loss, or persistent constipation occurs.
For further guidance and treatment, text me on Practo anytime.
