Constipation treatment in Sweden

Hi

I was just curious about the constipation treatments available for children and adult in Sweden. I visited the local pharmacy and found Dulcolax suppository is available as OTC but that is for adults.

I was specifically curious what if followed for children? Is glycerin suppository available here? What about enemas? Users from Sweden and Scandinavian countries please comment.

There is Dulcolax for children. They just have less of the working ingredient.

Spent a week in sweden with family one christmas, while there we visited several second hand/junk shops, was surprised to see every one had jones cans for sale, no idea what age group were getting enemas back then, sut at some point enemas must have been popular

@sirwilliam55 What exactly is a Jones Can?

It’s a metal enema can.

Not sure what the "official" take is, but as a kid I got adult Dulcolax suppositories from about 7 or 8 on as needed. Before then it was enemas. Didn't like them, but they sure worked.
