"I am 31 weeks pregnant, a pharmacist and an obstetric nurse told me I could take 17g of laxative daily as needed for constipation, but I'm not sure... is that correct?"

Yes, Lax-a-Day is safe to use during pregnancy for constipation. It is considered one of the top choices for mild constipation, as it is not absorbed by the gastrointestinal tract. Its use during pregnancy has been well-documented and is considered low-risk. I hope this information helps and wish you a good day.
