Relieves occasional constipation (irregularity).
Senokot Laxatives provide a virtually colon-specific action which is gentle, effective and predictable, generally producing bowel movement in 6 to 12 hours.
SENOKOT Tablets contain a natural vegetable laxative ingredient standardized for uniform action.
SENOKOT has been found to be effective even in many previously intractable cases of functional constipation. SENOKOT preparations may aid in rehabilitation of the constipated patient by facilitating regular elimination. SENOKOT preparations enjoy patient acceptance. Numerous and extensive clinical studies show their high degree of effectiveness in several types of functional constipation: geriatric and postpartum, drug-induced, pediatric, as well as in functional constipation concurrent with heart disease or anorectal surgery.
SENOKOT-S Tablets are designed to relieve both aspects of functional constipation--bowel inertia and hard, dry stools. They provide a stimulant combined with a classic stool softener, standardized senna concentrate gently stimulates the colon while docusate sodium softens the stool for smoother and easier evacuation. This coordinated dual action of the two ingredients results in colon-specific, predictable laxative effect, generally producing bowel movement in 6 to 12 hours. Flexibility of dosage permits adjustment to individual requirements. SENOKOT-S Tablets are suitable for relief of postsurgical and postpartum constipation, and effectively relieve drug-induced constipation.
