Whether occasional or persistent, constipation affects 1 in 4 people, 80% of whom are women. Constipation occurs when stools are hard, dry and difficult to evacuate. In general, constipation is diagnosed when the number of bowel movements falls below 3 per week. Occasional constipation usually results in bloating and intestinal pain, but can lead to serious complications.
Lubricating laxatives work by facilitating stool output with the aid of "fatty" substances (liquid kerosene). Prolonged use can reduce the absorption of certain vitamins (A, D, E, K). Some laxatives combine liquid kerosene with a ballast laxative, an osmotic laxative or a stimulant laxative.
Parapsyllium Laxative 10 g sachets contain a ballast laxative (psyllium) and a lubricating laxative (liquid kerosene). Psyllium is a natural substance that is neither digested nor absorbed. It soaks up water, making stools bulkier and less firm. It is used in the symptomatic treatment of constipation.
Dilute Parapsyllium Laxative 10 g sachets with a large glass of water or fruit juice. Stir and drink immediately.
Usual dosage: 1 tablespoon or 1 sachet, at bedtime.
Parapsyllium is composed of pulverized mucilaginous psyllium or ispaghul seed coat (3.33g) and microencapsulated liquid kerosene (3.33g).
Parapsyllium's other excipients are sorbitol, mango flavoring, apricot flavoring and anhydrous colloidal silica.
