What is Lax-A-Day 119g?

Product Overview

Lax-A-Day is a popular over-the-counter laxative, containing Polyethylene Glycol 3350, designed to provide gentle and effective relief from occasional constipation. This product is a powder that dissolves easily in liquids, offering a convenient and tasteless solution for managing infrequent bowel movements. The 119g size provides a 7-day supply, as the standard dose is 17g per serving.

How Lax-A-Day 119g Works

Mechanism of Action

The active ingredient, Polyethylene Glycol 3350, is an osmotic laxative. It works by drawing water into the bowel, which softens the stool and increases the frequency of bowel movements. This action is gentle and avoids the cramping or urgent bowel movements that can be associated with stimulant laxatives. This makes Lax-A-Day a preferable option for long-term use.

Benefits

  • Gentle and effective relief from occasional constipation.
  • Tasteless and odorless, mixing easily into various beverages.
  • Non-habit forming when used as directed.
  • Suitable for adults and children (with physician's recommendation).

How to Use Lax-A-Day 119g

Stir well until the powder is completely dissolved. Drink the mixture. It is recommended to take this product once a day, or as directed by a healthcare professional. Generally, you may use it for up to 7 days.

Important Considerations

For optimal results, drink plenty of fluids throughout the day to avoid dehydration. It is important not to exceed the recommended dose. If symptoms persist for more than 7 days, consult your doctor.
