About Iglax Susp
Iglax Susp is used to treat constipation. It may also be used to clean the intestines before a bowel surgery or examination. Constipation refers to infrequent bowel movements in which the stools are often dry, painful, and hard to pass.
Iglax Susp contains 'Bisacodyl', which works by increasing intestinal movements, thereby facilitating stool passage. It speeds up stool movements by stimulating bowel muscles, softens the stools and makes it easier to pass.
In some cases, Iglax Susp may cause certain common side effects such as diarrhoea, nausea, and abdominal pain. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, consult a doctor if you experience these side effects persistently.
Consult your doctor before taking Iglax Susp if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Iglax Susp should not be given to children unless prescribed by a child specialist. Keep your doctor informed about your health condition and medications to rule out any interactions.
