Don't give these medicines, you can give her a sachet lexopeg kids once in a day for a few days. And make changes in her diet, don't depend on medicines.

Health Tips
in metro we r just call away for kids Ayurveda is boon take care
Constipation is common for few kids of that age
If the stool is very hard then you Can use some stool softener
But I advise not to use as they are having a bad quality of habit forming tendencies
Improve hydration and give Goff fibrous diet with more soluble fibre .
Next Steps
If not relieved then contact or chat
Health Tips
U can apply a pinch of asafoetida ( hing,kayam) with few drops of water
Make it a paste and apply around naval (nabhi)
This home remedy will help.
For the baby of 2 years, one should avoid to take any laxative or any other medicine.
I have seen good bowl movements in children less than 5 years by prescribing Chavanprash leha.
Next Steps
share details in private chat for personalized prescription
Namaste..
As per my view I will not advice this laxative for kid.
We can a milder variety but most importantly her diet needs to be corrected.
Avoid maida or wheat. Give lots of water, fluids, vegetables and fruits.
Proper history of food habit is required to advice any medicine.
