Asked by Male, 24 · 5 months ago
H-Peg Powder, a polyethylene glycol (PEG) 3350 formulation, is usually tasteless or slightly bitter and not naturally sweet. Some PEG products may have added flavours or sweeteners to make them more palatable. Still, the standard H-Peg Powder is intended to be mixed with water and is typically unflavored.

Polyethylene glycol 3350 (PEG 3350) itself is generally not sweet. It is a laxative used to treat constipation and works by holding water in the stool to soften it and increase bowel movements.
- Some commercial formulations of PEG 3350 may include sweeteners or flavoring agents to make the taste more palatable, especially in powder or liquid forms intended for oral use.
- However, the active ingredient polyethylene glycol itself does not have a sweet taste.
- If you are using a specific brand or formulation, checking the packaging or product information can clarify whether sweeteners are added.
If taste is a concern, you can ask your pharmacist or doctor about the formulation you have and whether it contains sweeteners or flavoring agents. This can help you choose a product that suits your preference or needs.
