Hello
Thank for asking to HCM
I appreciate your query, it may not be the side effect of drug if it is the constipation from the drug you are taking, but it could be due to the low water intake and low fiber diet, second even if you are going change the drugs (Brand name ) then the symptoms of constipation would be there if the constipation is due to drug only instead of changing the drug better to have more water and fiber diet, hope this information helps.
