Constipation despite taking lactulose
I am 1 and half months postpartum , have been taking lactulose syrup (15ml) to help with constipation. It worked until last week. Now the syrup isn't working and I have to strain every morning. I drink more than 10 glasses of water per day but it doesn't help I only end up going to urinate multiple times.
Also how long is it recommended to take lactulose syrup ?
