Polyethylene Glycols brings constipation relief
PEG APIs to bring constipation relief
Gentle on the body, for better quality of life
Key benefits of PEG laxatives:
- Absence of side effects compared with other types of osmotic laxatives such as lactulose
- Gentle on the body - because the PEG is almost completely excreted, with very low levels of absorption by the digestive tract
- Suitable for long-term use by children as young as two years old for special PEG laxatives
This type of laxative thus improves quality of life for millions around the world, as part of treatment for chronic constipation in adults and children, during pregnancy, or before surgery or colonoscopy.
