Description
Medical device indicated for the symptomatic treatment of constipation. It promotes peristalsis, helping to have adequate intestinal evacuation, thus counteracting constipation and preventing the formation of fecalomas. It also facilitates the elimination of intestinal gas, reducing the sensation of bloating and abdominal distension. Agpeg esse is presented in powder form for oral solution.
Macrogol is a high molecular weight, water-soluble inert polymer that has the ability to bind to the water used for intake, retaining it in the feces. It determines a rehydration and softening of the fecal mass and facilitates its evacuation. It accelerates intestinal transit by promoting peristalsis. It is not absorbed or metabolized in the gastrointestinal tract and does not lead to hydro-electrolytic imbalances, if taken with the indicated dose of liquid. Simethicone is a substance that has the ability to decrease the surface tension of gas bubbles present in the gastrointestinal tract, facilitating their expulsion.
Ingredients
Macrogol, silicon dioxide, simethicone, sucralose.
Gluten free.
How to use
Use the measuring cup included in the package to measure the powder: fill it level and not pressed, then remove the excess quantity of product with the blade of a knife.
Children aged 6 months to 12 years (adults/children <43 kg)
- from 6-10 kg: 1 level scoop per day;
- from 10-15 kg: 1-2 level scoops per day;
- from 16-20 kg: 2-3 level scoops per day;
- 21-43 kg: 3-4 level scoops per day.
The dose should be increased or decreased, depending on the individual response to treatment, to allow regular evacuation of soft stools. The maximum dose required does not normally exceed 4 measuring spoons per day. Dissolve the powder in water or other liquid (50 ml for each measuring spoon) and take immediately. It is recommended to administer the product in the morning if 1 measuring spoon per day is to be taken. For larger doses, divide the intake between morning and evening.
Adults and children over 12 years of age (>43 kg)
- 2 to 10 level scoops per day.
The dose should be increased or decreased, depending on the individual response to treatment, to allow regular evacuation of soft stools. The maximum dose required does not normally exceed 10 measuring spoons per day. Dissolve the powder in water or other liquid (50 ml per measuring spoon) and take immediately. It is recommended to administer the product in the morning if the minimum dose (2 measuring spoons per day) is to be taken. For larger doses, divide the intake between morning and evening.
Warnings
Do not take Agpeg esse in case of known hypersensitivity to macrogol or other components, perforation, obstruction or intestinal stenosis, paralytic ileus, severe inflammatory diseases of the intestinal tract such as Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis and toxic megacolon. The use of laxatives is contraindicated in case of acute abdominal pain or of unknown origin, nausea and vomiting, rectal bleeding of unknown origin and in case of severe dehydration.
Some gastrointestinal disorders may occur (stomach ache, flatulence, abdominal swelling, nausea and fecal incontinence). Diarrhea is a secondary effect of taking excessive doses of Agpeg esse and can be avoided by reducing the dose. Cases of hypersensitivity reactions (skin rash) following the use of products containing macrogol have been reported rarely. In this case, stop treatment and consult your doctor.
It is recommended to use the product in pediatric age after consulting your doctor. Administration in children must be carried out under the direct supervision of an adult. Consult your doctor before use during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Do not use after the expiry date indicated on the package. Do not use if the package is opened or damaged. Do not exceed the maximum daily dose. Keep the product or the solution obtained out of the reach of children. If no improvement is noted after 7 days of treatment, it is advisable to consult your doctor. The product may reduce the time spent in the intestine and therefore the absorption of oral medicines. It is therefore advisable to consult your doctor in case of simultaneous intake of oral medicines, which must in any case be administered at least 2 hours apart. In case of adverse reactions, even if different from those listed, stop treatment and consult your doctor.
Conservation
