I have been taking softovac daily since may be 5 years. I am being diagnosed with chronic kidney disease with creatinine at 1.74. Is it safe for ckd patients to take softovac daily? I am 72 year old male or would you recommend any other medicine for constipation for ckd patients.

Softovac can be taken with a low risk of side effects. But if you have concerns then its better to take isphagula husk in its original form available easily, 2tsf with lukewarm milk or water at bedtime.

It is safe for you to take softovac powder (it is safe for even diabetic patients also. But considering your concern, I will suggest you to monitor your liquid intake and do modifications after consultation with your nephrologist. Again, some ayurvedic products like triphala churna are quite effective and safe too for long term use. Thanks.
