The doctor of my baby advised me to give her Lax-A-Day because she is having difficulty with her stools (constipation). What dosage should I give?

The recommended dose of Lax-A-Day for a child is 1 mg per kilogram of body weight, with a maximum dose of 17 g. It is important not to exceed this maximum dose to avoid giving too much of the medication. Be sure to measure the dose as accurately as possible, but don't worry if it's not exact. Just try to give the appropriate amount to help with constipation.
