Description

Herbal medicinal product used for the short-term relief of occasional constipation in adults aged 18 and over. The tablets contain Senna pods/Sennosides which work as a stimulant laxative. Laxatives do not affect the number of calories absorbed from food – this means they do not help with weight loss.

Adults aged 18 years and over and the elderly:

• Take two tablets at bedtime when required.
• Swallow tablets whole with water.

Normally it is sufficient to take this medicine up to two to three times a week. Do not take for more than one week.

Consult your doctor, pharmacist or nurse:

• If your symptoms worsen or persist during the use of the medicinal product.
• If there is no bowel movement after 3 days and laxatives are needed every day.
• If abdominal pain persists.
