Medicine Description laxel 5 mg
laxel 12 sachets is a medication that combines disodium phosphate, magnesium sulfate, and sodium sulfate to create an effervescent solution. Upon dissolution in water, these salts generate a hyperosmotic effect in the intestines. This action draws water into the bowel, enhancing fluid content and facilitating the passage of stool. The increased osmotic pressure promotes bowel distension, stimulating peristalsis, and ultimately leading to a more effective and comfortable bowel movement.
