English Summary: |
Constipation
can be a painful disorder to deal with and can often
have very negative consequences. The use of vitamin
B5 has been found to help to relieve constipation.
A study examined the use of Ro 01-4709, a drug that
contains vitamin B5 for treating constipation. Participants
taking this drug had significant relief from constipation
as compared to the group receiving the placebo. Other
studies confirm both the use of vitamin B5 and Ro
01-4709 to help relieve constipation for all age groups.
