Question over 5 years ago

Can Laxopeg be given to the elderly?

Dr Anjum Mujawar MBBS, MBBS , Emergency Medicine

Older people frequently suffer from constipation. The osmotic laxatives like Laxopeg find a place in their therapy, however, some of the side effects associated with these agents are abdominal pain, bloating, diarrhea and flatulence. These side effects are present because Laxopeg is converted to carboxylic acids like acetic acid, lactic acid and formic acid by the intestinal bacteria. Further, the patients may also develop a disliking to the sweet taste of the Laxopeg.
