Microlax Enema 50 x 5mL

Overview

Gentle, effective relief within 30 minutes

MICROLAX Enema acts where it is supposed to act: in the rectum. The micro-enema is gentle, hygienic and hardly noticeable at all when inserted into the rectum because the round tube neck is thinner than a suppository.

The combination of active substances releases the water compounded in the stool, thus loosening up the stool. The result is predictable relief within 30 minutes, like a normal bowel movement.

The laxative takes action locally so it is unlikely to cause bowel habituation. MICROLAX Enema is gentle acting and can be used for children under 3 years of age and pregnant women.

Each enema tube contains 5 ml of solution. This is equivalent to one teaspoon.

Benefits

MICROLAX Enema may be used whenever there is a need to relieve constipation or open the bowels, when there are certain disturbances of bowel movement or opening of the bowels and in preparation for examination of the rectum (back passage).

MICROLAX Enema is a fast acting micro-enema which works to soften bowel motions and gently assist bowel emptying without irritating the lining of the bowel.
