About Carelax Plus Oral Suspension
Carelax Plus Oral Suspension is used to treat constipation associated with piles, anal fissures, hernia, cardiovascular disorders, endoscopy, bowel clearance before radioscopy, pre/post-operative conditions, elderly and bed-ridden patients. Constipation refers to infrequent bowel movements in which the stools are often dry, painful, and hard to pass.
Carelax Plus Oral Suspension contains liquid paraffin (lubricant), Milk Of Magnesia (hyperosmotic laxative), and Sodium picosulphate (stimulant laxative). Liquid paraffin works by lubricating the bowels and softening the stools. Milk of magnesia works by increasing the osmotic gradient in the gut by drawing the water into the intestine, thereby helping in bowel evacuation. Sodium picosulphate works by preventing water absorption in the colonic lumen and stimulating the colon's propulsive activity, thereby promoting water accumulation. Together, Carelax Plus Oral Suspension helps in providing relief from constipation.
You are advised to take Carelax Plus Oral Suspension for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you, depending on your medical condition. You may experience certain common side effects such as diarrhoea, abdominal discomfort, pain, or cramps in some cases. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if you experience these side effects persistently.
To treat your condition effectually, continue taking Carelax Plus Oral Suspension for as long as your doctor has prescribed. Drink plenty of fluids (at least 6-8 glasses) while taking Carelax Plus Oral Suspension to prevent dehydration. Do not take Carelax Plus Oral Suspension for more than a week as it might cause dependency on Carelax Plus Oral Suspension for a bowel movement. Talk to your doctor if you notice any sudden changes in bowel habits that persist for over 2 weeks.
