Cremaffin syrup in BPH

Revered physicians here 🙏🏻my father was diagnosed with BPH, with his prostate now weighing close to 98gm after a month of curzest and Tamdura capsule. Both capsules are now post breakfast with capsule urimax 0.2 added post dinner. Father has complaints of constipation. To resolve it, can he take cremaffin syrup (not cremaffin plus), 10/15 ml at bed time? Does cremaffin affect prostate/BPH in any which way? Or does cremaffin syrup interact with curzest, Tamdura or specifically with urimax which is to be taken at night? Warm Regards 🙏🏻
