A member asked:
What medication is more effective for constipation problem of 5 months old baby having g6pd deficiency too?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It may be more important to increase fluid rather than medication to address such an issue at that age. You may also try like gentle massage. Fruit juice diluted may even be better than using medication for constipation in an infant.
