About Relux Sugar Free Oral Laxative Liquid

Relux Sugar Free Oral Laxative Liquid belongs to the group of medicines called osmotic laxatives, used to treat occasional constipation. Constipation refers to infrequent bowel movements in which the stools are often dry, hard and painful to pass. Constipation occurs when the normal muscle contractions in the large intestine slow down, which causes the incomplete elimination of stools from the body.

Relux Sugar Free Oral Laxative Liquid contains ‘Polyethene glycol’, which causes the water to be retained in the stools, thereby stimulating bowel movement. It increases the number of bowel movements, softens the stools and makes it easier to pass. Therefore, Relux Sugar Free Oral Laxative Liquid helps provide relief from constipation.

Take Relux Sugar Free Oral Laxative Liquid as advised. In some cases, you may experience certain common side effects such as bloating, gas, nausea, and abdominal pain/cramps. 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.
