[quote=Anonymous]Please help if you have ever had to do this. Our 12 year old was put on Exlax by his gastroenterologist over a year ago because of an unusual situation of extreme constipation. This unusual situation has passed. It is now time to get off the drug but of course DS's body is habituated by now to having it. We have successfully reduced the Exlax daily dose from 2 squares to 3/4 square. This took three months to achieve. It is extraordinarily hard to go below 3/4 square. Any ideas? The gastroenterologist is not all that bothered by our son having to stay on the drug. We aren't getting much help from him other than "increase his fruits and veggies". DS already eats a high fiber and very good diet. What else can we do to successfully get him off this drug? [/quote]
