Ledins MacroLedin 12 g is a preparation containing macrogol powder for the treatment of constipation in adults and children over 8 years of age. Macrogol is safe to use: it is a synthetic, water-binding substance that is not absorbed into the body, but passes through the intestines unchanged and is excreted with the feces. When macrogol is taken with water, it binds the water consumed and transports it to the intestines. It does not bind fluid from the body. As the amount of water in the intestinal contents increases, hard stools soften and the intestines begin to function normally. Going to the toilet begins to go smoothly without painful straining. Usage For the treatment of constipation. The usual duration of treatment is a maximum of 14 days. Read the package leaflet before use. Dosage Adults and children over 8 years of age: 1-2 sachets per day. Mix the powder in the sachet with a glass (approx. 2 dl) of water or juice, stir and drink the clear solution. The dose can be taken at any time of the day. For pregnant and breastfeeding women, as directed by a doctor. Composition Macrogol 4000. Does not contain any other substances.
