Buy Laxido Sachets For Constipation Online

When you’re constipated, everything can seem a bit sluggish. Feeling bloated, uncomfortable and spending far too long on the loo with little to show for it can be frustrating, painful and really affects your day.

But the good news is you don’t have to put up with these effects. Laxido sachets help get things moving again. They work with your body to soften hard stools and make them easier to pass, helping you to feel lighter, more comfortable and back to your normal self.

Each sachet contains macrogol 3350 and electrolytes, which gently draw water into your bowel to relieve constipation and ease more serious blockages like faecal impaction. They’re easy to take, orange-flavoured and usually start working within a day or two.

With discreet delivery direct to your door, it’s a simple step towards regular, more comfortable toilet trips.

Laxido Sachets Summary

About Laxido Sachets For Constipation

Laxido sachets are easy to take whether you’re at home or on the go, and work naturally with your body to ease constipation within a day or two. Laxido is what’s known as an osmotic laxative, containing macrogol 3350 and electrolytes. These ingredients help soften your stools by drawing water into them to make going to the toilet more comfortable. They also help your body keep the right levels of sodium, potassium and water during treatment.

How Do Laxido Sachets Work?

The active ingredient in Laxido sachets, macrogol 3350, is an osmotic laxative which pulls water into your bowel to soften your stools and increase their volume. This makes it easier and gentler for your body to pass poo naturally without causing sudden urgency or irritation to your digestive system.

Because it works by naturally rehydrating the stool rather than stimulating the bowel, it’s a reliable and well-tolerated way to get your bowel habits more regular again.

How To Take Laxido

You should take Laxido one to three times daily for constipation, dissolving one sachet in 125ml of drinking water each time. If you’re suffering from faecal impaction, you should take eight sachets daily in a six-hour window, either in eight glasses of water or by dissolving eight sachets in 1L of water.

If your symptoms haven’t improved after this time or get worse, speak to one of our healthcare professionals.

Ingredients

Laxido contains a combination of active ingredients. Macrogol 3350 draws water into your bowel to soften your poo while sodium chloride, sodium hydrogen carbonate and potassium chloride maintain your body’s natural salt and fluid balance during treatment.

The sachets also include inactive ingredients acesulfame potassium, a sweetener, and orange flavouring to improve the taste, making it easier and more pleasant to take regularly.

Side Effects

As with any medication some people may experience mild side effects including diarrhoea, indigestion, stomach pain, bloating, wind, nausea, vomiting and a sore anus.

They’re normally short lived and get better when you reduce treatment or after you’ve had a poo. If your symptoms don’t go away or get worse, speak to our healthcare professionals.

While severe side effects are rare, seek medical help immediately if you experience symptoms including severe diarrhoea or vomiting, shortness of breath, swollen feet, legs or ankles, muscle weakness or an irregular heartbeat.

Warnings

While using Laxido it’s important to drink plenty of fluids to help the medicine work effectively. Avoid taking other oral medications within one hour before or after your dose, as it may affect how they’re absorbed.

While Laxido can be taken if you’re pregnant or breastfeeding, speak to your doctor before starting treatment. Each sachet contains sodium and potassium, so if you're on a restricted salt or potassium diet, check with our healthcare professionals first to make sure it's suitable for you.
