Constipation may be caused by inadequate fluid and fiber intake, lack of exercise, busy sched-ules with no established elimination patterns, excessive use of laxatives, and specific medications. Disorders that may originally be seen as constipation include hypothyroidism, diabetes mellitus, hypokalemia, hypercalcemia, and neurologic disorders.
