Movicol FAQs
What is Movicol and how does it help with constipation?
Movicol is a type of laxative known as an osmotic laxative. It works by drawing water into your bowel, which helps to soften your stools and increase their bulk. This makes them easier to pass, providing effective relief from constipation and promoting comfortable bowel movements.
How should I take Movicol?
Movicol typically comes in sachets of powder that you mix with water to create a drink. The specific dosage and how often you should take it will depend on the type of Movicol product and the severity of your constipation. Always follow the instructions provided on the packaging or as advised by a healthcare professional.
Are there different types of Movicol products available?
Yes, Movicol offers a range of products to suit various needs. These include different formulations like Movicol Plain, Movicol Lemon & Lime, and Movicol Ease, which come in sachet form. There is also Movicol Liquid Orange Flavour. Each is designed to provide effective constipation relief with slightly different taste or preparation options.
Is Movicol suitable for long-term use?
Movicol is generally considered suitable for long-term use in cases of chronic constipation, under the guidance of a healthcare professional.
