General Information
Molaxole helps you to have a comfortable bowel movement even if you have been constipated for a long time. It also works in very bad constipation (called faecal impaction), as determined by your doctor.
Macrogol 3350 increases the volume of faeces by binding water leading to a normalisation of motility in the colon. The physiological consequences are an increased movement of the softened stools and easing of defecation. The salts in the formulation help maintain the body´s normal salt and water balance.
