Features
CE medical device. Macrogol is an inert, water-soluble, high molecular weight polymer that has the ability to bind to the water used for intake, retaining it in the feces. It rehydrates and softens the fecal mass and facilitates its evacuation. It accelerates intestinal transit by promoting peristalsis. It is not absorbed or metabolized in the gastrointestinal tract and does not lead to hydro-electrolytic imbalances if taken with the indicated dose of liquid.

Warnings
Keep out of reach and sight of children.
Administration in children must be carried out under the direct supervision of an adult.
Do not use if the package is open or damaged.
There is insufficient information about the use of SaniPeg during pregnancy or breastfeeding, therefore its intake in such circumstances should only be done under medical supervision.
The product can reduce the residence time in the intestine and therefore the absorption of oral medicines.
It is therefore advisable to consult your doctor if you are taking oral medicines at the same time, which in any case should be administered at least 2 hours apart.
In case of undesirable reactions, stop treatment and consult your doctor.

Contraindications
Do not take SaniPeg in case of:
- known hypersensitivity to one or more components.
- Perforation, obstruction or intestinal stenosis.
- Paralytic ileus.

The use of laxatives is contraindicated in cases of acute or unknown origin abdominal pain, nausea and vomiting, rectal bleeding of unknown origin, and in cases of severe dehydration.
