FEATURES AND BENEFITS
Normacol Plus granules contain 'sterculia', a natural fibre and 'frangula', a natural gentle laxative.
Frangula is a traditional herbal laxative. Together these two ingredients act by providing dietary fibre and additional laxative effect to bring natural relief from constipation.
Normacol Plus granules are designed to provide bulk in the bowel where it's needed and not in the stomach. This avoids the feeling of fullness or bloating, which can occur with some gel-forming products.
Sterculia 62% w/w, Frangula Bark Powder 8% w/w.
Place dry granules in your mouth, in small quantities if necessary.
Swallow granules immediately with plenty of water or cool drink. Do not chew. Do not take lying down or just before going to bed.
Adults: 1 to 2 heaped medicinal teaspoonfuls taken once or twice daily after meals or as directed by the doctor.
Children (6 to 12 years): Only on the advice of your doctor.
Drink plenty of water and increase fibre, except in cases of medication-induced constipation.
Prolonged use of laxatives is undesirable and may lead to dependence.
Do not use when abdominal pain, nausea or vomitting is present.
Do not use if you are pregnant or breast feeding. High fibre products may interact with other medicines by altering their absorption.
Check with your doctor or pharmacist if taking other medicines.
If you do not have a bowel movement after taking the granules for 4 days, you should stop the treatment and seek medical attention.
Medicines have benefits and some have risks.
Always read the label and use only as directed. If symptoms persist or you have side effects see your healthcare professional.
