If you suspect that the medicine you are using may cause side effects such as constipation, first of all remember to report side effects to your doctor. I encourage you to report an adverse reaction if you have not already done so: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/jak-i-dlaczego-zglaszac-dzialania-niepozadane Here are some ways that you may find helpful: 1) Diet Please consume plenty of foods rich in dietary fiber, such as whole grain cereal products (bran, oats, flaxseed), green vegetables and legumes. Fruits, including plums and cherries, which are a source of fiber, can also help fight constipation. Fiber affects the acceleration of intestinal peristalsis, as well as increasing the mass of stool, due to the fact that it absorbs water and swells in the intestines. A diet rich in this ingredient allows you to reduce the occurrence of symptoms associated with bowel movements. It is worth gradually increasing the supply of fiber to avoid side effects, such as discomfort in the abdomen. When increasing its consumption, remember to drink plenty of water (at least 1.5 liters per day). Please also avoid alcohol consumption. 2) Physical activity Regular physical exercise can help prevent constipation. Physical activity allows you to reduce the amount of accumulating gases or reduce flatulence, and also has a positive effect on the consistency of stool. Simple exercises, including walking or cycling, can help. 3) Toilet routine Do not stop the need to defecate. Please give yourself plenty of time to use the toilet and preferably stick to a fixed time and place. It may also be helpful to adopt the right posture, which will facilitate the expulsion of stool - leaning forward and raising your knees above the hips at the same time and resting your feet on the hill. Please try not to overstrain during defecation, and also do not stay in the toilet for more than 5-10 minutes. 4) Medication selection It is worth discussing alternative treatment options with your doctor. Also, please do not stop treatment or make any changes without medical advice. Any modifications to the therapy should be made after consultation with the attending physician who is familiar with your health condition in detail: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/artykuly/czy-jak-i-kiedy-mozna-odstawic-leki If you are unable to access your primary care doctor, the GdziePoLek.pl service also allows you to obtain a teleconsultation with a doctor: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/telekonsultacja You can gdziepolek.pl check the availability of Rexetin and Book it at the pharmacy of your choice: https://www.gdziepolek.pl/produkty/67114/rexetin-tabletki-powlekane/apteki?pvid=107530
