Laxoluz syrup side effect
Hello doctor.
My 3 year old son having a problem of constipation...
I consult doctor and they prescribe laxoluz syrup for 1 month for my son.
This Syrup is very helpful.
During one month of medicine. , my son passes soft stool and he is very comfortable..
But as soon as I stop laxoluz syrup (after 1 month) , he again shows constipation symptoms...
So can I again start this laxoluz syrup?
is it safe for children?
Or. It has side effects if we use is for a long period of time?
