Prucalopride-2 Tablet contains prucalopride (2 mg), which works in the body as follows:

• Activates Serotonin 5 HT4 Receptors: Prucalopride acts as a highly selective serotonin 5 HT4 receptor agonist. It activates these specific receptors in your body.
• Enhances Acetylcholine Release: By stimulating the serotonin 5 HT4 receptors, prucalopride indirectly enhances the release of acetylcholine. This neurotransmitter boosts intestinal motility, effectively managing chronic constipation by promoting bowel movements.

• Keep Prucalopride-2 Tablet at a controlled room temperature, ideally below 30°C.
• Protect the medicine from sunlight and moisture; store it in its original packaging.
• Safely keep it out of reach of children to prevent accidental ingestion.
• Always remember to use the medicine before its expiry date for maximum effectiveness.

• Ensure you maintain a balanced diet rich in fibre. Foods like whole grains, fruits, vegetables, and legumes can encourage regular bowel movements and help manage chronic constipation.
• Regular physical activity, such as walking or cycling, can also stimulate your intestines and help manage constipation. Try to incorporate daily exercise into your routine where possible.
