Description
Laxative for the treatment of occasional constipation in adults and children, useful for softening the fecal mass and promoting its flow along the intestinal loops, especially in the case of diverticula. Recommended to avoid straining during defecation, in cases such as: hernia, hypertension, anorectal vascular disorders, in the presence of hemorrhoids or abdominal, intestinal or rectal surgery.
Components
Vaseline oil, olive oil, almond oil in equal parts.
How to use
- From 6 to 11 years: 2-3 teaspoons per day, in a single administration.
- From 12 years and up: 2-3 tablespoons per day, in a single administration. Take the product during or after meals, preferably in the evening, at least one hour before bed. Shake the bottle before use.
Warnings
Do not use if you are taking other laxatives or stool softeners. Products with a laxative effect should be used as infrequently as possible and for no more than seven days. A diet rich in liquids promotes the effect of the product. Do not use the product if the packaging is damaged or after the expiry date shown on the packaging. Do not use in children under 3 years of age due to the risk of lipoid pneumonia. Keep out of reach of children. Possible side effects: metabolism and nutrition disorders. Liquid paraffin may interfere with the absorption of lipo-nutrients such as vitamins A, D, E, K especially following prolonged use of the product. It may cause isolated cramps or abdominal colic, more frequent in case of severe constipation. It may cause rectal oozing (leakage, dripping) of paraffin resulting in anal irritation and itching, rectal bleeding following prolonged use. It may cause lipoid pneumonia and oil embolism, due to accidental inhalation of the product.
Overdose and abuse: abuse of laxatives, frequent/prolonged use or in excessive doses, causes abdominal pain, persistent diarrhea with consequent loss of water, mineral salts (potassium in particular) and other nutrients. The loss of fluids and electrolytes must be replaced. Electrolyte imbalances cause symptoms such as: thirst, vomiting, weakness, edema, bone pain (osteomalacia) and hypoalbuminemia. In severe cases, dehydration or hypokalemia may occur, possibly causing cardiac or neuromuscular dysfunction, especially in case of concomitant therapy with cardiac glycosides, diuretics or corticosteroids. If episodes of constipation occur repeatedly, a doctor should be consulted.
Do not use in case of hypersensitivity to one of the components; nausea, vomiting, acute abdominal pain or pain of unknown origin; intestinal obstruction or stenosis; disorders affecting the gastrointestinal tract such as appendicitis, ulcerative colitis, rectal bleeding of unknown origin; acute haemorrhoidal crisis with pain and bleeding; severe dehydration; subjects with difficulty swallowing or who have pathologies (e.g. hiatal hernia) or conditions (e.g. debilitated subjects confined to bed) that involve the risk of regurgitation; colostomy/ileostomy.
Conservation
Keep the bottle tightly closed and away from light. The expiry date refers to the product correctly stored, in an intact package.
