What is Teva Medicine Citro-Mag?
Product Overview
Teva Medicine Citro-Mag is a cherry-flavored, over-the-counter (OTC) laxative and purgative solution. Designed to provide relief from occasional constipation, it contains magnesium citrate, an active ingredient known for its effectiveness in promoting bowel movements. This 300ml bottle offers a convenient and palatable solution for digestive discomfort.
How Citro-Mag Laxative Works
Mechanism of Action
Citro-Mag's primary ingredient, magnesium citrate, works by drawing water into the intestines. This increased water content softens the stool, making it easier to pass and stimulating bowel movements. This process helps to relieve constipation by facilitating the natural elimination of waste.
Ingredients
The active ingredient in Teva Medicine Citro-Mag is magnesium citrate anhydrous. It also contains purified water and cherry flavoring.
- Magnesium Citrate Anhydrous: The active ingredient responsible for the laxative effect.
- Other Ingredients: Purified water and cherry flavoring to improve palatability.
Using Citro-Mag for Constipation Relief
Dosage and Administration
For adults, the recommended dosage is typically between 1/4 to 1/2 of the 300ml bottle, or as directed by a healthcare professional. It's important to drink plenty of water to help with the laxative effect. This liquid is usually taken orally. Always follow the instructions on the product label or consult with a healthcare provider for specific dosing instructions.
Important Considerations
Citro-Mag should be taken as a single dose. Effects can usually be expected within 30 minutes to 3 hours. Avoid using Citro-Mag for more than one week unless directed by a doctor. Consult your doctor before use if you have kidney problems, are on a low-magnesium diet or are pregnant.
Potential Side Effects
Common side effects may include abdominal cramping, nausea, and diarrhea. If these symptoms persist or worsen, discontinue use and seek medical attention.
