Acino- Movicol 20 Sachets

This medication consists of Macrogol which is a laxative and electrolytes (sodium chloride, sodium bicarbonate and potassium chloride). It is used for the treatment of adult, adolescent and elderly patients with constipation, including if you have been constipated for a long period of time and for fecal impaction (severe bowel condition in which a dry and hard mass of stool becomes stuck in the colon or rectum)

Recommended dose is 1 sachet for 1 to 3 times a day depending on how severe your constipation is. The medicine should be taken for around 2 weeks. If you have to take this medicine for a longer period of time, please make sure to consult your doctor first. If you take medicines that increase constipation or if you have constipation due to a disorder like Parkinson’s disease or multiple sclerosis (MS), your doctor may recommend that you take this medicine for longer than 2 weeks. If you have to take this medicine for a longer period of time, please make sure to see your doctor first. If you need to take the medicine for a long period of time, your doctor may recommend lowering the dose to 1 or 2 sachets a day.
Fecal impaction:
Make sure to confirm with your doctor that you have fecal impaction before starting this medicine. Recommended dose is 8 sachets a day taken within 6 hours for up to 3 days if needed. Make sure not to exceed 2 sachets in an hour if you have a heart problem.
·         Start by opening the sachet and pour the powder contents into a glass, followed by adding around 125ml (¼ pint) of water to the glass. Then, make sure to stir the mixture until all of the powder has dissolved well and the solution becomes clear or a little hazy, then drink the solution. If you have fecal impaction, you can dissolve the 8 sachets in 1 liter of water at once.
·         Take your medicine at any time of the day with or without food.
