Dulcolax 5mg – 20 tablets

What is it

Dulcolax Tablets have a dual action as they work in two ways to relieve constipation.

Not only do Dulcolax Tablets deliver gentle overnight relief from constipation by gently stimulating the muscles of the bowel but also let your body know when it needs to go. So they provide a predictable and reliable outcome.

Directions

Adults:

Take 1 or 2 tablets daily before bedtime, or as directed by your doctor.

• If you have not used Ducolax before, start with 1 tablet and increase to 2 if necessary.
• Swallow tablets whole with water.

Should not be used in children or adolescents under the age of 18 years.

Do not take milk or antacids within one hour of taking Dulcolax tablets.

Warnings

Should not be used in children or adolescents under the age of 18 years.

If laxatives are needed for more than 5 days in a row or if you persistent abdominal pain, consult your doctor.

Do not take milk or antacids within one hour of taking Dulcolax tablets.

Do not take if you have an intestinal obstruction, an inflammatory gastrointestinal disorder, or severe dehydration, or if you are pregnant, planning a pregnancy, or breast feeding.

Please note that it is very important to avoid drinking milk or an antacid product at the same time as taking Dulcolax. These liquids are alkaline, and can dissolve the comfort coating too early. For the same reason, Dulcolax Tablets should never be crushed or chewed before swallowing, otherwise the comfort coating is not effective anymore.
