4 CLINICAL PARTICULARS
4.1 THERAPEUTIC INDICATIONS
Symptomatic treatment of constipation in adults and children aged 8
years and above.
An organic disorder should have been ruled out before initiation of
treatment. IDROLAX 10 g should remain a temporary
adjuvant treatment to appropriate lifestyle and dietary management of
constipation, with a maximum 3-month treatment
course in children. If symptoms persist despite associated dietary
measures, an underlying cause should be suspected and
treated.
4.2 POSOLOGY AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION
Oral use.
Posology
1 to 2 sachets (10-20 g) per day, preferably taken as a single dose in
the morning.
The daily dose should be adjusted according to the clinical response
and may range from one sachet every other day
(especially in children) up to 2 sachets a day.
The effect of IDROLAX becomes apparent within 24 to 48 hours after its
administration.
Paediatric population
In children, treatment should not exceed 3 months due to a lack of
clinical data for treatment lasting longer than 3 months.
Treatment-induced restoration of bowel mo
