Instructions for use for LAXANS AL enteric coated tablets, 30 pcs

Laxans AL is a laxative containing the active ingredient bisacodyl. It is used for the short-term treatment of constipation and conditions that require easier bowel movements. Laxans AL belongs to the group of triarylmethanes and works by inhibiting the absorption of water from the intestine and promoting the release of water and electrolytes. This makes the stool softer and more voluminous, which leads to improved bowel emptying. It is best taken unchewed in the evening or fasting in the morning with plenty of liquid. The recommended dose is 1-2 tablets (5-10 mg) per day for adults and children over 10 years. One tablet (5 mg) is recommended for children aged 2-10 years. Laxative AL should only be used for a short time, up to one week at the most, unless otherwise prescribed by the doctor. A doctor should always be consulted in case of chronic constipation. Side effects may include gastrointestinal discomfort such as abdominal pain and abdominal cramps. Laxans AL is not suitable for children under 2 years of age and must not be used in case of hypersensitivity to the ingredients, intestinal obstruction, inflammatory gastrointestinal diseases or fluid and salt balance disorders. Pregnant women should only use Laxans AL on medical advice. The exact dosage and instructions for use should always be discussed with a doctor or pharmacist. It is important to note that laxative medicines such as laxatives AL should only be used for a short time and are not a permanent solution to constipation. It is advisable to adjust one's lifestyle, for example, eat fibre-rich foods, drink enough fluids and reduce stress.
