PEDIAPEG 30 SACHETS

Description
A medical device with laxative action that, through osmotic action, naturally regulates the bowel. It is neither absorbed nor fermented in the intestine, does not irritate the mucosa, and is eliminated unchanged in the stool. PediaPEG® is particularly indicated for chronic constipation and occasionally irregular bowel movements. Thanks to its affinity for water, PediaPEG® softens stool, facilitating evacuation without causing cramps, abdominal pain, or urgency. Its effectiveness does not diminish over time.

Each sachet of PediaPEG contains 6.563 g of Macrogol 3350.
Excipients: silicon dioxide, flavouring, sodium saccharin.

Gluten and lactose free.
