Lax 5mg Tablet 10

Lax 5mg Tablet 10 is used for the following:

• Managing short-term constipation: This medicine relieves constipation by stimulating bowel movements, allowing easier passage of stools.
• Preparing bowels before medical procedures: Lax 5mg Tablet 10 can also be used in hospitals to clear out the bowels prior to surgeries, colonoscopies or other internal examinations that require a clean intestine.

• Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water. Avoid breaking, crushing or chewing it, as this could interfere with its special coating designed for targeted release in your intestines.

• Always maintain good hydration while on this medication.

Lax 5mg Tablet 10 is taken orally.

Lax 5mg Tablet 10 contains bisacodyl (5 mg), which affects your body in the following ways:

• Directly Stimulates the Intestines: Bisacodyl acts on the intestinal mucosa, increasing peristaltic contractions that push contents through the colon. This helps move stools through your intestines more easily.
• Promote Accumulation of Water: Bisacodyl helps promote the accumulation of water in the intestines. This softens the stool, making it easier to pass.

• Store Lax 5mg Tablet 10 in a cool, dry place.
• Avoid exposure to direct sunlight or high heat.
• Keep away from moisture or damp conditions.
• Always keep this medicine out of reach of children.

• Increase your dietary fibre intake with more fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. This can help manage constipation by adding bulk to your stool.
• Stay well hydrated by drinking plenty of water and clear fluids; they aid digestion and stool passage.
