Introduction About PEGEZE SYRUP
Pegeze Syrup is a medicine that is used to manage chronic constipation associated with faecal impaction and used to cleanse the bowel before colonoscopy procedure. It contains polyethylene glycol 3350 as active ingredient that softens the stool and manages constipation.
Polyethylene glycol 3350 is an osmotic laxative which works by drawing water into the lumen of the intestines, thereby increasing water retention in bowel. As a result, loose stools are produced and constipation is managed. It also results in clean intestines required for various diagnostic purposes.
Always take Pegeze Syrup as advised by the doctor. It is not a ready-to-drink syrup. It needs to be diluted with water before consumption and dose may be adjusted depending upon age. Do not take Pegeze Syrup if you are allergic to any of its components.
