Picotale Syrup is a potent, gentle laxative designed to provide relief from constipation. Containing Sodium Picosulfate, this syrup works by stimulating the muscles of the intestines, promoting bowel movements, and aiding in the regularization of the digestive system. The medication is commonly prescribed for short-term use to relieve constipation and to prepare for certain diagnostic procedures such as colonoscopies.
Sodium Picosulfate is a stimulant laxative that directly affects the large intestine, encouraging peristalsis (intestinal contractions) and fluid secretion into the colon. This helps to soften stool and facilitates its movement through the intestines, leading to effective bowel evacuation.
Picotale Syrup is ideal for patients seeking relief from occasional constipation. It provides rapid action, typically within 6-12 hours, making it suitable for overnight relief. The syrup formulation is easy to administer, and its taste is mild, making it a preferred option for both adults and children, with careful dosage adjustments.
This syrup is typically used when lifestyle changes like diet and exercise have not been effective. It can also be useful in patients experiencing constipation due to medications, or following surgery or childbirth, when regular bowel movements are important for overall health and comfort.
