In order to get rid of constipation you have to start eating more fruits and vegetables and less junk food. Increasing your intake of water is a must too.
Senokot s. It's effectiveness can be seen in its price. Pretty expensive but it works and you dont need a prescription, and its natural (from a plant).
There are a number of different over the counter laxatives-you can also try drinking alot of water and prune juice
mineral oil is also good-just don't use too much or you will have the opposite problem
Quick fix: soak some prunes in water and eat before going to bed.
Try a stool softener pill (over the counter and cheap).
Go to the bathroom at the same time every day, it has to be a habit.
Drink lots of water.
Try some metamucil in water.
Ground flaxseed on your cereal.
Stay away from carbonated drinks.

if u r sure constipated:
eat bulk laxative like wheat, or fibers like orange.
Comrade, try 3/4 cup of oatmeal a day. It is the recommended amount in the Quakers oatmeal container. That helps. I eliminate waste almost everyday now. Plus, it keeps down your cholesterol.
Also, make sure that you are well-hydrated. Drink water until your urine is clear. This is the healthy level of water in the body. Maintain it everyday.
I hope this helps. Take care.

eat a bowl of cherrys and or carrots they help out a lot and will keep you going like u need to go
Increase your water intake! My Grandmother usually suggest skipping too. Also there is an awesome OTC powder called MIRALAX. It is ordorless & tasteless. It will give you relief without the side effects of laxatives. Miralax was previously only available by prescription but recently has become OTC. Can be fond in the fiber/laxative isle.
You may have a lifestyle problem. Some herbalists say that the first sign of dehydration is constipation. Drink more water, distilled is best since the minerals that are found in tap water are rock and not absorbed easily by your body. The second thing is lack of fiber, you can get over that easily enough by eating fruits and vegetables, legumes and other stuff like that. Meat has no fiber. The third thing that you might want to add to your life is exercise, go ahead walk it out.
There is an herbal formula called Lower Bowel formula that conditions your bowels to move waste material out of your body, you can find it by googling Dr. Christopher formulas. All of these things are long term corrections that will yield life long positive results.
For today you can go to a natural health type store and find an herbal tea called Smooth Move, it is mostly seneca leaves and will get things going within 24 hours. If you are not too modern you might want to try an enema in an emergency--google optimal health network for those type supplies.
