Patient's Query

I have been experiencing constipation for the past four days with hard stool and pressure in the rectum. I tried herbal tea and a fleet enema with minimal result, still minimal improvement. Currently taking Carvedilol, Lisinopril, and Levothyroxine medications. Kindly help.

I read your query and understood your concern. I suggest you take the following medications for 30 days:

  1. A capsule of Pantoprazol in the morning.
  2. Syrup containing milk of magnesia and liquid paraffin15 ml at night.

I suggest you consult a specialist, talk with them, and take the medications with their consent. I hope this has helped you. Kindly follow up if you have more doubts.
