Hi,
Thanks for writing here.
Avoid giving duphelac.
If he is suffering from constipation,give one cup of milk with 2tsp of ghee every night before he goes to bed and include one banana in his routine meals.
Assure if you are giving adequate dose of cremaffin i.e. 3tablespoons once at night for 3 nights now.




With regards,
Dr.Akash Jain.
