Hi. my wife has been constipated for 4 days. she has been on fybogel and it has had no effect. what could she do?

Simple remedies: If drinking water doesn't help, try a home enema. If she is impacted, get to her physician. If this is a longstanding problem, she'll be checked for porphyria and hypothyroidism.
