Gas s/p laxative: It is unclear of your age or why you are constipated .Gas X may help a bit w/ gas but would seek medical attention today as to why you are constipated and to insure there is no blockage

Discuss: With your doctor with specific medical advice. Generally gas X tablet can be taking to alleviate gas pain. If after taking laxatives, abdominal pain may be an indication of obstruction that requires evaluation
