Dulcosoft Oral Solution 250 Ml Dulco

Description
Medical device for the symptomatic treatment of constipation and to soften stools.
The main component of DulcoSoft is macrogol 4,000, an osmotic laxative.
Macrogol 4,000 has a high capacity to retain water. It acts as a water transporter and delays intestinal absorption, causing an increase in the amount of water in the colon. It softens the stool and increases its volume. This leads to accelerating intestinal transit and making evacuation easier, giving a natural and delicate sensation of relief from constipation and irregularity.
Macrogol 4,000 has a purely physical mode of action: it is practically unabsorbed by the body and is excreted unchanged.

Components
Macrogol 4000, potassium sorbate (preservative), citric acid, purified water.

Without flavouring, sugar, lactose and gluten .

How to use
Dilute with a drink of your choice (about 150 ml).
Adults and children over 8 years: 20-40 ml of solution per day, (equivalent to 10-20 g of macrogol 4,000) to be taken preferably in a single administration in the morning.
Children aged 4-7 years: 16-32 ml of solution per day (equivalent to 8-16 g of macrogol 4,000), preferably taken in a single administration in the morning.
Children aged 2-3 years: 8-16 ml of solution per day (equivalent to 4-8 g of macrogol 4,000), preferably taken in a single administration in the morning.
Children between 6 months and 1 year: 8 ml of solution per day (equivalent to 4 g of macrogol 4,000), preferably taken in a single administration in the morning.
Use in children under 12 years of age should preferably take place under medical supervision.
Measure the dose using the measuring cup included in the package. The dose can be adjusted to individual needs, without exceeding the maximum recommended dose: it can vary from once a day to once every two days.
The appropriate dose is the minimum sufficient to produce regular evacuation of soft stools. The recommended daily dose should preferably be taken in a single administration in the morning.
The effectiveness of the product occurs between 24 and 72 hours after taking it.
Do not take for more than 7 days.

Warnings
Do not take if:
- hypersensitivity to macrogol 4,000 or to any of the other components;
- severe inflammatory bowel disease (such as ulcerative colitis, Crohn's disease) or toxic megacolon;
- gastrointestinal perforation or risk of gastrointestinal perforation;
- paralytic ileus or suspected intestinal obstruction or symptomatic stenosis;
- painful abdominal syndromes whose cause has not been established.
If you are in any doubt, consult your doctor or pharmacist before taking DulcoSoft.
DulcoSoft should not be taken daily for prolonged periods of time without investigating the cause of constipation.
In case of diarrhoea, caution should be exercised in patients subject to fluid or electrolyte imbalance (e.g. elderly, patients with impaired hepatic or renal function or patients treated with diuretics) and electrolyte monitoring should be considered.
If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, consult your doctor first.
Do not use on children under 6 months.
Macrogol 4,000 increases the osmotic pressure in the intestine and may therefore modify the intestinal absorption of other products taken at the same time. Inform your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking any other products.
Excessive doses of DulcoFosft may cause diarrhoea, abdominal pain, abdominal distension and vomiting, which resolve when treatment is stopped or the dose is reduced.
Keep out of sight and reach of children.
