Lactulose is good. It's quite gentle in that it softens the poo rather than force it through you like Senna does.
I don't like it but if you put the dose usually about 15 -20 mls in a glass, add some water, mix and then drink with a straw. I can get it down if I do that otherwise I sit with it in my mouth for ages as I can't swallow it.
Hope something helps.
