Pegicol Orange Flavour Liquid 200ml

Pegicol Orange Flavour Liquid 200ml is used for managing constipation. It is formulated with Polyethylene glycol, Potassium chloride, Sodium bicarbonate, and Sodium chloride to ensure safe and efficient relief from constipation. The syrup works by softening stools and promoting regular bowel movements, helping to combat faecal impaction. Pegicol Syrup provides a gentle solution without the need for invasive procedures, making it an ideal option for young children.

• Polyethylene Glycol: Polyethylene glycol is a key ingredient that facilitates the softening of stools by drawing water into the bowel. This helps in increasing the water content in the stool, making it easier to pass. Its primary function is to assist in the smooth movement of waste through the digestive system, providing relief from constipation.
   
• Potassium Chloride: Potassium chloride helps maintain the balance of electrolytes in the body, which is crucial for normal muscle function, including the muscles of the bowel. It supports hydration by retaining fluids, which contributes to the proper movement of waste through the intestines. The presence of potassium chloride ensures that the digestive system functions effectively, helping in the overall health of the gut.
   
• Sodium Bicarbonate: Sodium bicarbonate helps regulate the pH level in the intestines, creating an optimal environment for digestion. It assists in neutralising excess acidity in the gut, which can contribute to discomfort. By balancing the pH levels, sodium bicarbonate ensures the smooth function of the digestive system, making bowel movements more comfortable.
   
• Sodium Chloride: Sodium chloride is an essential electrolyte that helps maintain fluid balance within the digestive system. It plays a role in enhancing water retention in the bowel, which helps soften the stool. By regulating fluid levels in the body, sodium chloride helps maintain overall bowel function and supports effective digestion.
   
• Other Ingredients: Aqueous Base. 

• Supports Digestive Regularity: This formulation helps promote regular bowel movements by supporting the body's natural elimination process. It works by drawing water into the intestines and softening stools for easier passage. This gentle approach helps maintain digestive comfort without causing sudden urgency.
   
• Manages Constipation: Polyethylene glycol in the syrup helps loosen stools and ease bowel movements. It works gradually to support a smooth and comfortable digestive process. Consistent use, along with proper hydration, helps maintain regularity without discomfort.
   
• Relieves Faecal Impaction: By increasing water retention in the intestines, the syrup helps soften hard stools, making them easier to pass. This reduces the need for invasive procedures to relieve impacted stools. The gentle action helps in minimising strain during bowel movements.
   
• Supports Hydration and Electrolyte Balance: Sodium chloride and potassium chloride maintain electrolyte levels while promoting hydration. This balance is essential for smooth muscle function in the digestive tract. Proper hydration further enhances stool consistency and bowel movement ease.
   
• Manages Recurrence of Faecal Impaction: This formulation provides a gentle yet effective approach to maintaining soft stools in children. It supports long-term bowel regularity without causing excessive stimulation. Continued use, under guidance, can help reduce the chances of recurring digestive discomfort.
   
• Offers a Gentle Alternative to Harsh Laxatives: Unlike stimulant laxatives, this formulation works naturally by increasing water content in the intestines. This approach helps avoid sudden or forceful bowel movements. Its well-tolerated nature makes it a suitable option for regular digestive support.
