Hi

Diarrhoea ,abdominal pain,nausea,vomiting are some of the common side effects.

Liquid paraffin might interfere with the absorption of fat-soluble vitamins. Long term use can also cause anal irritation.

Avoid using the drug continuously for a long period of time.Few weeks of drug free period should be followed during which other stool softeners like isphagula husk powder can be used.

High fibre diet and adequate hydration is essential at all times.

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