Ayurvedic laxative medicine for children
My son (12 years old) suffers from constipation sometimes. Please suggest an Ayurvedic laxative medicine for him to easy bowel movement and soften the stools when the home remedies are not working and he has not pooped for more than 2 days (triphala, water intake, high fiber food, fruits, exercise etc). Can I give Kayam churna or Softovac? Are these medicines safe for kids? Are there any better medicines that are more effective?
