Cremalax

Product Overview

Cremalax is a medication containing the active ingredient Sodium Picosulfate (10mg). It is formulated as a tablet for oral administration. Sodium Picosulfate is a stimulant laxative used to relieve occasional constipation by promoting bowel movements. Cremalax is commonly prescribed for short-term relief of constipation and to prepare the bowel for medical procedures such as colonoscopies.

Uses

Cremalax tablets are used to treat temporary constipation by stimulating bowel movements. It works by increasing the movement of the intestines, which helps to facilitate the passage of stool. Additionally, Cremalax may be prescribed to empty the bowel before certain medical procedures or surgeries to ensure clear visualization of the colon.

How to Use

To use Cremalax, take the tablet orally with a full glass of water. Swallow the tablet whole without crushing, breaking, or chewing it. The dosage and frequency of Cremalax may vary depending on the individual’s age, medical condition, and response to treatment. It is essential to follow the instructions provided by your healthcare provider or the medication label carefully.

How it Works

Cremalax contains Sodium Picosulfate, which stimulates the muscles in the intestine, increasing their contractions and promoting bowel movements. This helps to soften the stool and ease its passage through the digestive tract. By facilitating bowel movements, Cremalax relieves constipation and promotes regularity.

Dosage and Administration

The recommended dosage of Cremalax for constipation relief is typically 10mg to 20mg taken orally once daily, preferably in the evening. For bowel preparation before medical procedures, higher doses may be required, and the timing of administration may vary. Always consult your healthcare provider for the correct dosage and administration instructions tailored to your specific needs.
