Overview Lax-Active Syrup

ConstiCare Syrup, a sugar-based laxative, alleviates constipation by drawing fluid into the intestines, facilitating bowel movements. It's also indicated for hepatic encephalopathy, a liver disorder marked by confusion, tremors, and reduced consciousness. ConstiCare Syrup may be administered with or without food, strictly as prescribed by your physician. For optimal results, maintain a consistent daily schedule. Dosage adjustments may be necessary based on efficacy. Avoid exceeding the recommended dose; missed doses shouldn't be doubled. Onset of action is typically within 48 hours. Consult your doctor if constipation persists beyond three days. Common, usually transient, side effects include nausea and vomiting. Severe diarrhea or electrolyte imbalances necessitate immediate medical attention. Prior to use, inform your doctor about diabetes or lactose intolerance. Prolonged use may require periodic blood tests to monitor mineral levels (e.g., potassium, sodium). Concurrent use of other laxatives is contraindicated. Pregnant or breastfeeding individuals should consult their physician before commencing treatment.
