A member asked:
My son who is 47 years old, is constipation, he didn;t go to the toilet for 2 weeks!!! how long ,does he have to take duralax for it to work?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Constipation: If you son did not have a BM in 2 weeks he needs to go to the emergency room. He MAY have a blockage in his intestines or perhaps something less serious. In any case, he doesn't need complications resulting from this. Peace and good health.
