Potty problem
My son is 3 years old. He is potty trained now. Last 6 months I have used lactulose syrup 10 ml for the potty training bcoz he has problem of constipation. After he get potty trained he do potty daily . Till yesterday I gave him lactulose syrup 10 ml mixed with orange juice bcoz he doesn't like to drink it raw. Today I didn't give him the syrup and he didn't potty. He eats fruits veggies a lot and also drinks water . My question is can I use this stool softener daily? How long it is safe to use for kids?

It seems like the problem of constipation hasn't resolved after lactulose. You may give laxopeg kid sachet once daily in 100ml water daily for 15 days. Meanwhile consult your pediatrician for proper examination and investigation of the baby for constipation.
