About Fibril Powder
Fibril Powder is used to treat constipation and indigestion. Constipation is a condition that occurs when a person has fewer bowel movements and has difficulty in passing the stools (faeces). Indigestion is the inability to digest the food that is associated with pain and discomfort in the stomach.
Fibril Powder contains Ispaghula husk, a dietary fibre. It is the seed coat obtained from the plant Plantago ovata Forssk. When mixed with water, Fibril Powder produces a gel-like substance. This gel easily passes through the digestive system and increases the water content in the stools. Fibril Powder further increases bowel movements and lubricates the intestine for easy passage of stools.
Please take Fibril Powder in the dose and duration advised by your doctor based on your medical condition. Fibril Powder is generally safe to use. However, some may experience side effects like wind and bloating due to the sudden increase in fibre intake. Exposure to Ispaghula husks on the skin or their inhalation may cause skin rash and runny or itchy nose. Although not everyone experiences these side effects, if they occur, please seek medical attention.
Let your doctor know if you have any stomach or intestinal blockage, appendicitis, swallowing problems, rectal bleeding, diabetes, phenylketonuria (increased levels of an amino acid called phenylalanine), and reduced bowel movements before starting Fibril Powder . Fibril Powder is to be taken with enough liquid since it may lead to difficulty swallowing, chest pain, and vomiting. Intake of probiotics, prebiotics, and plenty of fluids is recommended if you are suffering from indigestion. Pregnant and breastfeeding women can use Fibril Powder with proper consultation and caution. Fibril Powder is not recommended for children below six years of age.
