Softner Plus Suspension 100 ml

Softner Plus Suspension used in the treatment of constipation. The detailed uses of Softner Plus Suspension are as follows:

• Short-term constipation: Softner Plus Suspension helps soften dry, hard stools and stimulates the bowel wall, providing relief from straining and difficult bowel movements.
• Bowel clearance: It is used to empty the colon completely before diagnostic tests, surgical procedures, or imaging scans to ensure clear visualisation.

Softner Plus Suspension provides reliable and comfortable relief from the physical symptoms of constipation. By making stools softer, this medicine helps your digestive system move naturally to reduce bloating, pressure, and stomach discomfort.

Benefits may include:

• Helps make stools softer and easier to pass.
• Promotes the natural movement of your digestive system.
• Reduces bloating, stomach pressure, and daily discomfort.
• Lubricates your digestive tract for painless bowel movements.
• Lowers the risk of painful straining.
• Supports safe recovery after stomach surgery or childbirth.
• Relieves pressure and pain for individuals living with haemorrhoids.

• Shake the bottle thoroughly before each dose to ensure the active ingredients are evenly mixed.
• Use a proper medical measuring spoon, cup, or syringe to measure your exact dose; do not use a standard household spoon.
• Take this oral liquid with or without food, usually at bedtime as recommended, to allow it to work while you sleep.
• Drink a full glass of water immediately after taking your dose to help the ingredients work effectively in your bowel.

• Eat more fibre: Gradually increase your intake of fibre-rich foods like vegetables, fresh fruits, oats, and whole grains to help add volume and structure to your stool naturally.
• Drink plenty of fluids: Ensure you drink at least 8 to 10 glasses of water daily. Laxatives require adequate water in your body to soften stool effectively and prevent dehydration.
• Stay physically active: Engage in regular, moderate exercise such as walking or cycling for 20 to 30 minutes daily to encourage natural intestinal contractions.
• Establish a regular routine: Try to use the restroom at the same time each day, and do not ignore the natural urge to have a bowel movement, as delaying it makes stools harder and more difficult to pass.

• Shake well: Always shake the bottle vigorously before measuring your dose to prevent the liquid from separating.
• Short-term use only: Do not take this medicine for more than 7 consecutive days unless your doctor tells you to, as prolonged use can make your bowels dependent on laxatives.
• Time other medications: Avoid taking other oral medicines within 2 hours of taking Softner Plus Suspension , as it can speed up your digestion and prevent your body from absorbing other drugs properly.
• Monitor bowel habits: Stop using the liquid and contact your doctor if you experience sudden, unexplained changes in your bowel habits that last longer than 2 weeks.
• Inspect before use: Visually inspect the liquid before taking it; do not use it if you notice unusual clumping, discolouration, or an unusual smell.
• Contraindications: Do not take Softner Plus Suspension if you have an intestinal obstruction (blocked bowel) or bowel perforation, symptoms of appendicitis, such as severe abdominal pain, fever, nausea, or vomiting, severe dehydration or significant electrolyte imbalance, have severe kidney impairment, are allergic to liquid paraffin, magnesium hydroxide, sodium picosulfate, or any of the ingredients in this medicine.
• People with kidney disease: Use this medicine with caution. Magnesium may build up in the body if kidney function is impaired, so your doctor may monitor your magnesium levels or recommend an alternative treatment.
• People with liver disease: There is limited information on the use of this combination in people with liver disease. Use it only under your doctor's advice.
• Older adults: Older adults may be more sensitive to dehydration and electrolyte imbalances caused by laxatives. A lower dose or closer monitoring may be needed, especially with prolonged use.
