A is the answer and winners are :Eze Hyginus and Maryam.Details below:
Glycerol suppositories act as a rectal stimulant and may also have some
lubricating and softening actions. It is useful in babies and children and acts
within 15 to 30 minutes. Bisacodyl, sodium picosulfate and senna are stimulant laxatives that are generally not preferred in children. However, they may
be recommended by physicians in children to prevent recurrence of faecal
impaction. Ispaghula Husk is a bulk-forming laxative that is not recommended
for use in children under 6 years of age.
