See your doctor.: How to gradually get off laxatives will depend largely on why you are constipated in the first place. This will take a good history and physical and perhaps some tests. You should make an appointment to see a gastroenterologist soon. In the meantime you could start adding fiber to your diet and maybe even add a fiber supplement such as Metamucil once a day with extra liquids. Good luck.
