Baby constipation drops?

The real reply from the in-app AI advisor

Constipation drops are often not the first choice for babies. When your baby is constipated, first review their diet: if breastfeeding, look at your own fluid and fiber intake; if on solids, offer high-fiber vegetables (broccoli, pear, apricot purée). Enough fluids and movement are also key.

If that's not enough, your pediatrician might consider lactulase or glycerin suppositories—but only your doctor decides which drop, at what dose. Some over-the-counter herbal drops may not be suitable for babies. Bottom line: talk to your pediatrician before using drops.
