yes dear overuse of laxatives is not justified in pregnancy
u should go for dietary modification first
use fruits lots of water isphagol husk
yogurt
n if u really need a laxative then you can take it cautiously
how many weeks u r pregnant
syp Duphalac 30 ml once if u havent passed stool for last 2 days

yes use of laxatives frequently is not recommended. you can use isphagol husks daily. and modify your diet to include more vegetables and drink plenty of water.
