I don't think we normally use hyphens like this (mashinin-gan) in Romanized Japanese.

The provided reference seems to list a variety of ingredients in addition to hemp seed pellets, so I don't think "hemp seed pellets used as natural laxative" is correct.
  【組成】 	麻子仁二升 (500g) 芍藥半斤 (250g) 枳實半斤 (250g) 大黃一斤 (500g) 厚朴一尺 (250g) 杏仁一升 (250g) 

Daijisen Plus (大辞泉プラス) just calls it a 漢方薬 without specifying the ingredients.
  漢方薬のひとつ。便秘の症状に処方される。
