Many Treatments: There are many treatments for constipation over the counter. Miralax helps by retaining water in your colon, whereas both dulcolax and senna act by stimulating your bowel to contract (which moves your feces along). If you're having severe abdominal pain, nausea and vomiting, you need to be evaluated again by a medical professional.
