Aqualax Powder

Aqualax Powder is used in the treatment of constipation. It also helps in cleaning and preparation of intestines prior to medical procedures or examination. This medicine works by drawing water into the intestine thereby makes the stool soft and easier to pass. Aqualax Powder should be taken in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Use this medicine regularly to get the most benefit and try to take it at the same time(s) each day. Your dose may go up or down depending on how well it's working. Don't take more than you're advised to and, if you miss a dose, don't take an extra one to make up for it. Aqualax Powder takes at least 48 hours to work. Talk to your doctor if you're still constipated after three days. The most common side effects are nausea, diarrhea and stomach pain. You can help avoid the side effects by drinking plenty of fluids, taking your medicine between meals. Talk to your doctor straight away if you notice any of these. Before taking Aqualax Powder, you should tell your doctor if you have diabetes or if you're unable to digest milk sugar (lactose intolerant). If you use this medicine over a long period of time, your doctor may want you to have occasional blood tests to check the mineral levels (e.g. potassium and sodium). Don't take other laxative medicines while taking this medicine and check with your doctor if you're pregnant or breastfeeding.

Take this medicine in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Check the label for directions before use. Measure it with a measuring cup and take it by mouth. Shake well before use. Aqualax Powder may be taken with or without food, but it is better to take it at a fixed time.

Aqualax Powder works by drawing water into the intestine through osmosis, which makes the stool soft and easier to pass. It also helps clean out the intestines prior to medical procedures or examination.

If you miss a dose of Aqualax Powder, skip it and continue with your normal schedule. Do not double the dose.
