Is Throat Coat Tea safe to use for occasional constipation?

Answer by  wendyj (359)

It's certainly safe to drink but it won't do anything for constipation, since it's intended for a sore throat. Check with your doctor for good constipation treatment options.

I do not see it being harmful in any major way. Many drinks with caffeine, such as coke or coffee, help with constipation. Since tea has caffeine in it as well, I think it would be helpful. As long as there are no poisonous elements to the tea, it should be fine.
