long-term.

Described as the ultimate laxative, this
is for the chronically constipated patient who needs strong treatment. This
formula is carefully buffered with carminitive herbs to prevent griping. The
therapist's aim should always be to move the patient on to the tonifying and
restorative CO - TON A when possible. Prolonged laxative use can often create
more problems than relieve, but there is often little alternative if laxative
abuse has already occurred.
