AGPEG PLUS IS
Description
Agpeg plus esse is a medical device to be taken to obtain an effective cleansing of the intestine. The removal of solid residues in the colon is essential in preparation for endoscopic, radiological and ultrasound examinations for an accurate diagnosis.
Mechanism of action: Agpeg plus esse contains macrogol 3350, an inert substance that is not absorbed, does not irritate the mucosa, does not ferment and is eliminated in an unchanged form. Thanks to its affinity for water, it attracts a high quantity of liquids in the intestinal compartment, hydrating the fecal mass and stimulating peristalsis.
It also contains simethicone which, thanks to its anti-foaming action, is effective in absorbing gastrointestinal gas associated with constipation.
Components
Macrogol 3350 and simethicone. Excipients: silicon dioxide, flavouring, sodium saccharin.
Gluten free.
Warnings
Contraindications
Do not take the product in case of:
- known hypersensitivity to the product
- intestinal stenosis
- dynamic ileus
- acute or severe colitis
- toxic megacolon
- intestinal perforation
- gastric stasis
- inflammatory bowel diseases (such as Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis)
- patients weighing less than 20 kg or aged less than 2 years
Pregnancy and breastfeeding
There is no experience with taking it during pregnancy and breastfeeding. The product should be taken only on the advice of a doctor.
Interactions
The product can reduce the time spent in the intestine and therefore the absorption of drugs administered orally at the same time. Therefore, avoid ingesting them together: after taking a medicine, leave an interval of at least 2 hours before taking Agpeg plus esse. If you are taking anticoagulants, antiplatelet drugs or drugs for diabetes, consult your doctor or the endoscopy center for a possible change in dosage.
The oral suspension must be prepared at the time of administration. If it is not taken immediately, the suspension must be stored in the refrigerator and used within 24 hours of its preparation. Do not add other ingredients to the reconstituted suspension. Simethicone may interfere with the effect of some reagents used in diagnostics, such as guaiac gum.
Conservation
Keep out of reach of children. Do not use the device after the expiry date indicated on the package (the expiry date is on the sachets and box). Do not use opened or damaged sachets. Do not store above 25°C.
Validity with intact packaging: 36 months.
Format
Pack of 4 sachets
