Lubowel 24 Capsule is taken orally.

Lubowel 24 Capsule contains lubiprostone (24 mcg), which works on your body through the following mechanisms:

• Activation of Chloride Channels: Lubiprostone selectively activates ClC-2 chloride channels present on the surface of cells lining your small intestine. This process enhances fluid secretion into the intestine.
• Increase in Intestinal Fluid Secretion: With an increased secretion of intestinal fluid, your stool softens and its passage through the intestine becomes easier. This action helps alleviate constipation and associated symptoms.
• Promotion of Bowel Movements: The overall effect of these activities leads to an increase in spontaneous bowel movements which significantly reduces the discomfort associated with chronic idiopathic constipation and IBS-C.

• Store Lubowel 24 Capsule at a temperature not exceeding 25°C.
• Keep it in a dry place, away from light and moisture.
• Make sure the container is tightly closed when not in use.
• Always keep this medicine out of reach of children.
• Check the expiry date before use and do not use if expired.

• If you're managing chronic idiopathic constipation or IBS-C with Lubowel 24 Capsule, try to incorporate fibre-rich foods like fruits, vegetables, and whole grains into your diet. These can aid bowel movements.
• Regular physical activity can also promote bowel regularity and reduce symptoms of constipation. Aim for at least 30 minutes of moderate exercise a day, such as brisk walking or cycling.
