Can I take Herbolax tablet after consuming alcohol?

This Premium Q&A, reviewed and published, features a real conversation between an iCliniq user and a physician.

Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

Can I take a Herbolax tablet to regulate my bowel movement? I consume alcohol regularly, and as a result, I have constipation.

Please help.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Herbolax tablet is an ayurvedic preparation. It clears the bowel. After drinking alcohol, constipation is common. You can take Herbolax tablets (Trivuth, Haritaki, Kasani) to regulate bowel movement.

I hope this helps.

Thank you.

Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

Thank you for the reply.

Can I take it after drinking alcohol? Or should I give a gap before taking the tablet?

Hi,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

Of course, you can take it after drinking alcohol, but as it is a laxative, you should eat something before taking Herbolax.

I hope this helps.

Thank you.
