Product Overview
Pegfiber Polyethylene Glycol 3350 with Ispaghula Powder is designed to help relieve constipation. It works by drawing water into the stool and increasing its bulk through natural fiber, which softens stools and promotes smoother bowel movements. Regular use supports healthy digestive function and helps restore consistent bowel habits.
Dosage and Administration
Take Pegfiber Powder exactly as instructed by your healthcare professional. It is recommended to mix it with a full glass of water for optimal effect. Using it consistently at the same time each day can help maintain regularity. Avoid exceeding the prescribed dose, and do not use it for extended periods without medical supervision.
Precautions and Contraindications
This medicine should not be used by individuals with intestinal blockages, bowel obstructions, or unexplained severe abdominal pain. Ensuring adequate hydration is important to prevent dehydration or worsening constipation. Pregnant or breastfeeding women should only use this product under medical advice.
Therapeutic Uses
Pegfiber Powder is mainly used to treat constipation. It alleviates discomfort from hard or infrequent stools, improves stool consistency, and reduces straining during bowel movements. By retaining water and adding fiber, it helps stools pass more easily and supports regular digestive patterns.
Mechanism of Action
The powder combines polyethylene glycol and ispaghula. Polyethylene glycol acts as an osmotic agent, retaining water in the intestine to soften stools and increase their frequency. Ispaghula provides natural fiber that absorbs water, swells, and adds bulk to stools. Together, they enhance stool texture and gently stimulate bowel movements.
Side Effects
Most side effects are mild and usually resolve as the body adjusts. Consult your doctor if any effects persist or cause concern. Limited information is available regarding common side effects.
Usage Guidelines
Follow the dose and duration recommended by your doctor. Pegfiber Powder can be taken with or without food, though taking it at a consistent time each day is preferred.

The safety of consuming alcohol while taking this medicine is not well established, so consult your healthcare provider. Its use during pregnancy or breastfeeding should be guided by a doctor. Effects on driving or operating machinery are unknown, so avoid such activities if you feel impaired. Limited data exists on its use in individuals with kidney or liver disease, so medical advice is essential.
