PEGinpol

Description
A medical device in the form of a powder for extemporaneous oral suspension, useful in the treatment of constipation. PEGinpol is particularly indicated for chronic constipation and, occasionally, for irregular stools. PEGinpol is a laxative medical device that, through osmotic action, naturally regulates intestinal activity. Due to its affinity for water, PEGinpol softens the stool, facilitating evacuation without causing cramps, abdominal pain or urgency. It is not absorbed or fermented in the intestine, does not irritate the mucosa and is eliminated unchanged in the stool. Its effectiveness does not decrease over time.
