Medicinal Benefits:

Laxcard Husk Powder Orange belongs to a group of medicines known as laxatives, used to treat constipation. Laxcard Husk Powder Orange is a combination of two drugs: Ispaghula and Lactitol. Ispaghula is a bulk-forming laxative that increases the amount of water in the stool, making the stool softer and easier to pass. On the other hand, Lactitol is a disaccharide sugar. It breaks down into low-molecular-weight organic acids in the colon, increasing the osmotic pressure. This causes an increase in water content in stools, and stool volume, thereby making the stool softer and easier to pass. Thus, Laxcard Husk Powder Orange helps provide relief from constipation.
