Picosoft Kid Syrup 60 ml

Picosoft Kid Syrup belongs to the group of medicines called laxatives 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, characterised by stools that are often dry, painful, and difficult to pass. 

Picosoft Kid Syrup contains Sodium Picosulfate that prevents the absorption of water in the colon/intestine, thereby stimulating the propulsive (pushing forward) activity, which in turn promotes the accumulation of water, providing that stool can pass with ease. Thus, it relieves constipation. 

You can take Picosoft Kid Syrup with or without food. You are advised to take Picosoft Kid Syrup 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 Picosoft Kid Syrup for as long as your doctor has prescribed. Drink plenty of fluids (at least 6-8 glasses) while taking Picosoft Kid Syrup to prevent dehydration. Do not take Picosoft Kid Syrup for more than a week, as it might cause dependency on Picosoft Kid Syrup for a bowel movement. Consult your doctor if you experience any sudden changes in bowel habits that persist for more than two weeks. Consult your doctor before taking Picosoft Kid Syrup if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Picosoft Kid Syrup should not be given to children as safety and effectiveness have not been established.
