Nursing interventions in patient with constipation?

If the individual is old enough, Imodium AD or Pepto-Bismol. If it is a baby, do not wait, call the pediatrician right away.

An adult (or baby) can become dehydrated completely if vomiting is present. I myself was hospitalized as I lost consciousness within 12 hours. Due to a stomach virus. If you are severely sick, call a doctor and get ready to call emergency if you are feeling light headed and dizzy.
