After trying umpteen laxatives available in US, obtained from vaidyaratnamoushadalaya.com in India (Trichur,Kerala,India) a pulverized mixture of 3 fruits & 2 herbs, called Bruhat Triphala (Tri-three, phala-fruits)(Bruhat means strong). I take one TBSP dissolved in hot water & drink it after dinner @ night before going to bed. I have been on it for 3 yrs & it has never failed me. You can reduce the quantity, if you develop cramping and frequent loose stools. You have to get it thro DHL ( very expensive), but the medication is dead cheap! For a 2week supply, the price for a packet is $ 1 and 25 cents!! But, you must ask the pharmacist to insert inside the package, a prescription in your name so that the customs won't detain it as a contraband dope! The main three fruits are: Phyllanthus Emblica, Terminalia Chebula, Terminalia Bellarica & two herbs are Cassia Angustifolia, & Glycerrhiza Glabra.

I tried triphala but it set up pressure to go without a result! :(

It is my understanding that the ordinary Triphala is a powder derived from pulverizing 3 fruits, whereas what I referred to was Bruhat Triphala which has an additional 2herbs, one of which I know is derived from Senna. That is very effective in most cases that I know. You can look for it thro www Vaidyaratnamoushadalaya.com and it is not at all expensive.

You can also try Kappikachu ( Indian Mucanapuriens ) from Vaidhyaratnam , quite effective . Must remember to take empty stomach 30 to 45 Min before food for action
