Description of PARAPSYLLIUM powder oral suspension in Sachets 30 Sachets / 10g

Indication:

  • Constipation (INDICATION)
  • Constipation (INDICATION_GROUP)
  • Palliative care (INDICATION_GROUP)

Whether it is occasional or persistent, constipation affects 1 in 4 people and affects women in 80% of cases. We can speak of constipation when the stools are hard, dry and difficult to evacuate. In general, this is diagnosed below 3 bowel movements per week. Occasional constipation most often results in bloating and stomach pain, but can lead to serious complications.

Lubricant laxatives work by facilitating the emission of stools using “fatty” substances (liquid paraffin). Their prolonged use can reduce the absorption of certain vitamins (A, D, E, K). Some laxatives combine liquid paraffin with a ballast laxative, an osmotic laxative, or a stimulant laxative.

GLOSSARY (summary)


fecal impaction
Stool plug in the rectum or in the colon. It is to be feared in the elderly or constipated, or those who remain bedridden for a long time. It exposes to a risk of obstruction of the digestive tract.


intolerance
Undesirable effect, most often digestive, when taking a drug. The irritation of the stomach due to aspirin is intolerance and not an allergy.


laxative of ballast
Laxative which has the property of swelling on contact with water: it increases the volume of the stools and makes them less hard. It is devoid of toxicity.


lubricating laxative
It is a fatty substance, not absorbed by the intestine, which facilitates the transit and the elimination of the stool. It is devoid of toxicity, but its prolonged use reduces the absorption of certain essential vitamins (A, D, E, K).


symptomatic treatment
Treatment that suppresses or alleviates the symptoms of a disease without addressing its cause.


vitamins
An essential ingredient for the growth and proper functioning of the body. Vitamin requirements are normally covered by a varied diet. In developed countries, only vitamin D deficiency, in the young child or the old man who is exposed to the sun, justifies systematic supplementation. Superior intake, especially with medicines, can lead to overdose and various disorders (mainly vitamins A and D).


Biliary
Excretory pathways leading the bile of the liver to the duodenum. They include the bile duct and the gall bladder, which stores excess bile between meals.
