Suppositories for the local symptomatic relief of transient and occasional constipation in children aged 2-12 years.
Contains 12 suppositories.
It is a medicine in the form of suppositories for rectal administration that are composed of glycerol, an active ingredient with laxative properties that produce a softening of the stool and a slightly irritating local action that stimulates the intestine to facilitate the evacuation of stool.
It is therefore indicated for the treatment of occasional constipation in children.
Intended for use in children from 2 to 12 years of age.
The usual dose is 1 suppository a day, when needed or as directed by your doctor.
