Short Description : Macrogol has a natural mode of action that works gently in the colon to relieve constipation. There’s no gain or loss in either water or electrolytes, because when it is mixed with water, Macrogol 3350 forms an ‘iso-osmotic’ solution – which is less likely to dehydrate the body. And once it’s worked to bring about a bowel movement, the active molecule, Macrogol 3350, is expelled from the body virtually unabsorbed.
Composition : Each 25ml Laxogol contains
- Macrogol (3350) BP 13.125 gm,
