What Experts Say

Sodium picosulphate is a diphenolic stimulant laxative that undergoes enzymatic conversion in the colon to bis(p-hydroxyphenyl)sulfone, the active metabolite. This metabolite stimulates colonic motility and increases fluid secretion, promoting effective bowel evacuation. The mechanism is selective for colonic tissue, avoiding effects on small intestine.

Gastroenterologists recommend Laxoberon for occasional constipation and bowel preparation. The syrup formulation achieves rapid onset within 6 to 12 hours. It is particularly useful in elderly patients and those unable to take tablets. Clinical efficacy is excellent with minimal systemic absorption.

Take Laxoberon at bedtime with water for morning bowel movement. Dose adjustment may be needed based on individual response. Avoid long-term daily use without medical supervision.
