<human>: Hi Doctor, My son is 18 months old and he has the constipation problem. We have been giving cremaffin for over 6 months now (5ml once at night). Is there a problem in giving this ? Also, we are giving Fig in the morning time. Initially giving fig did not work out. Hence we started cremaffin.
<bot>: Hello, Using remain syrup is safe but for short period because using for the long term is not a solution. Here are some advice for you:- Use plenty of water, apple juice, orange juice.- Use fig in the morning and plum jam.- Use kiwi in the evening.- Avoid eating a banana,- Use abdominal massage to help the abdominal peristalsis increase. - During this time avoid using remain. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
