Macrogol (3350) exerts an osmotic action in the gut, which induces a laxative effect. Macrogol (3350) increases the stool volume, which triggers colon motility via neuromuscular pathways. The physiological consequence is an improved propulsive colonic transportation of the soften stools and a facilitation of the defecation. Electrolytes combined with Macrogol (3350) are exchanged across the intestinal barrier (mucosa) with serum electrolytes and excreted without net gain or loss of sodium, potassium and water. Macrogol (3350) is unchanged along the gut. It is virtually unabsorbed from the gastrointestinal tract.
There is a possibility that the absorption of other medicinal products could be transiently reduced during use with this oral solution. There have been isolated reports of decreased efficacy with some concomitantly administered medicinal products, e.g. anti-epileptics.
In the treatment of chronic constipation, diarrhoea or loose stools normally respond to a reduction in dose. Diarrhoea, abdominal distension, anorectal discomfort and mild vomiting are more often observed during the treatment for fecal impaction. Vomiting may be resolved if the dose is reduced or delayed.
Extensive fluid loss by diarrhea or vomiting may require correction of electrolyte disturbances.
Clinically, no effects during pregnancy are anticipated, since systemic exposure to Macrogol (3350) is negligible. This oral solution can be used during pregnancy. No effects on the breastfed newborn/infant are anticipated since the systemic exposure of the breast-feeding woman to Macrogol (3350) is negligible. This oral solution can be used during breast-feeding.
This medicinal product contains 8.125 mmol of sodium in each dose of 125 ml. The sodium content of this oral solution should be taken into consideration when administering the product to patients on a controlled sodium diet.
