Hello.
Thank you for your query at DoctorSpring.com.

I am Dr.R.K and I am pleased to assist you.
I have gone through your post and the reports.
You are having simple functional constipation.

There are many different medications for treating constipation.
Although Colvac is a good medication for constipation, it should not be taken for a long time.

You can take Lactofiber regularly, which your doctor had prescribed earlier.
In addition, Please follow the below recommendations strictly.
- Take a high fiber diet and drink lot of fluids (about 3 - 4 litres of water daily).

- Adequate physical activity is also important. I would advice you to do 30 minutes of brisk walking everyday.

- Also check your blood glucose levels and thyroid function.

- Avoid constipation causing medications like cough syrup and antidepressant medications.

I hope that answers your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards, Dr.R.K.
