Description
Lecicarbon A Suppositories
Lecicarbon A Suppositories are a fast acting laxative that give a predictable, natural response in just 15-30 minutes. They contain two salts, sodium hydrogen carbonate and sodium dihydrogen phosphate, which when combined react to form carbon dioxide gas that gently makes its way to your constipated area and induces peristalsis.
Lecicarbon A Suppositories can be used for various forms of constipation, e.g. intake of food not containing enough fibre, lack of physical activity and in diseases which need easy defaecation, and can also be used for emptying the bowels before surgery or diagnostic procedures in the rectum.
Lecicarbon A Suppositories are suitable for adults and children over 12 years old. For children under 12 years of age, use Lecicarbon C Suppositories.
