Constipation is the most common gastrointestinal problem which affects both men and women and can lead to serious psychosocial and physical problems. It can be divided into several categories such as obstructed defecation, normal transit constipation and slow transit constipation. Constipation is the reason for more than 92,000 hospital admissions and 2.5 million doctor visits in the US per year.
