DulcoSoft

DulcoSoft® solution

If normal bowel activity is slowed down, this can lead to hard, compact stools with a difficult and painful bowel movement. DulcoSoft solution contains the osmotically active ingredient macrogol 4000, which binds water and thus increases the fluid content in the colon. This softens hard stools and makes them easier to pass through the intestines - for regular, facilitated bowel movements.

Macrogol 4000 works purely physically. Absorption into the bloodstream is negligible; it remains in the intestine, from where it is excreted unchanged.
The product's efficacy remains unchanged even after prolonged use.

DulcoSoft solution is used to:
- Soften hard stools
- Relieve irregular, hard stools

.

DulcoSoft^® is a salt-free macrogol formulation. The macrogol functions similarly to a sponge. It absorbs the drunk water and transports it specifically into the intestine. There, the stool is softened and gains volume. Natural bowel movement kicks in and digestion is gently kick-started - for normal, soft stools within about 24-72 hours, usually within a day.

*Free of sodium chloride, potassium chloride, sodium hydrogen carbonate.
