Suggest Remedy For Constipation

Hello. I am suffering constipation as the result of taking Norco (5-325) since noon Thursday for a broken clavicle. No BM since that time. I have also been taking Senna 8.6 mg-50 mg tablets; this has been ineffective. i m eating regularly, and had two 10 oz. glasses of prune juice at 6 pm yesterday. Nothing. I am normally very regular (BMs 1-2x daily). This is getting very frustrating; I fear it turning into a mental hang-up. What can I do? THANKS...

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Please take plenty of water, eat high fibre diet, do regular exercise. If not improved you can use metamucil or benefiber for further for bulk formation. Use syrp lactulose thirty ml after dinner for five days. If symptoms not improved please consult your doctor he will examine and treat you accordingly.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
