Coso Oral Solution is used for the short-term relief of occasional constipation in children. Constipation refers to infrequent bowel movements, with stools often dry, painful, and hard to pass. 

Coso Oral Solution contains sodium picosulfate, which stimulates the mucosa in the large intestine and encourages the muscles in the bowel to move waste easily, thereby increasing bowel motility.

Coso Oral Solution may cause side effects, such as diarrhoea and abdominal pain or cramps. Most of these side effects may not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, consult the doctor if the side effects persist or worsen.
