Is it safe to take painkillers to relieve stomach cramps caused by senna herbal tea?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Best would be to stop drinking the senna tea that can cause cramps. Painkillers may actually worsen the pain in this context. Talk to your pediatrician about other options if constipation is the reason for why you are drinking senna tea.
