Product Overview
CosmoCol® Plain Flavour Sachets is an effective osmotic laxative used for the relief of constipation and to help restore regular bowel movements.
Description
CosmoCol® Plain Flavour Sachets is an effective osmotic laxative used for the relief of constipation and to help restore regular bowel movements.
It contains macrogol (PEG 3350) with electrolytes, which works by holding water in the stool. This softens stools and makes them easier to pass without stimulating the bowel, helping to reduce straining. CosmoCol® is suitable for people who require a gentle, non-habit-forming laxative, including for longer-term use when advised.
The plain, unflavoured formulation is ideal for those who prefer or require a neutral taste. This pack contains 30 sachets, suitable for short-term or ongoing constipation management.

- Relieves constipation gently and effectively
