Question

I'm really worried because I've been taking dulcoflex tablets every night, and now it feels like I'm reliant on them. It all started back when I was 18 and dealing with constipation issues. I was also over 100 kg, but then I managed to get down to 75 and have kept it there. I just don't want this to turn into a lifelong dependency. How do I break this habit, and what should I be doing instead for the constipation? Any advice would be really appreciated.

Question

How long is too long to be constipated?
