What Is Dulcosoft Liquid And What Is It Used For
Dulcosoft Liquid cotains the active ingredient macrogol 4000, an osmotic laxative. Macrogol 4000 has a high water-binding capacity. It serves as a carrier for the liquid (water) and retards the intestinal water absorption leading to an increased amount of water in the colon. There, the hardened stool is softened and stool volume increases. This leads to increased bowel movement and eases defecation, supporting a natural feeling relief. Macrogol 4000 has a purely physical mode of action: it is virtually not absorbed by the body and it is excreted unchanged.
The cause of constipation can be a number of things including but not limited to:- Sudden change of diet
- A diet with not enough fibre
- Not drinking enough fluids
- Loss of ‘tone’ of the bowel muscles in older people
- Pregnancy
- Medicines such as morphine or codeine
- Having to stay in bed for a long time
- Lack of exercise
