bisacodyl gastro resistant 5mg for bowel regularity quot

Introduction

BISCODINE 5 is a gastro-resistant laxative tablet formulated with Bisacodyl 5 mg, specifically designed to provide predictable, overnight relief from constipation. This stimulant laxative acts directly on the colon, encouraging intestinal peristalsis (muscle movement in the bowel) to facilitate smooth and natural bowel evacuation. The gastro-resistant coating ensures the active ingredient is not released in the stomach but only in the intestine, where it is needed.Whether you are dealing with occasional constipation, preparing for a medical procedure, or experiencing sluggish bowel movements due to dietary or lifestyle factors, BISCODINE 5 offers a safe, effective, and clinically backed solution.

Composition

Each BISCODINE 5 tablet contains:

• Bisacodyl IP – 5 mg (Gastro-resistant formulation)

Key Features and Ingredients

• Active Ingredient – Bisacodyl 5 mg

Bisacodyl is a well-established diphenylmethane derivative used for its stimulant laxative effect. It works by stimulating the nerve endings in the intestinal wall, promoting peristaltic action and increasing fluid accumulation in the colon to soften stools.

• Gastro-Resistant Tablet Coating

The specialized enteric coating protects Bisacodyl from being degraded by stomach acid, ensuring delayed-release action in the large intestine. This improves effectiveness while minimizing gastric irritation.

• Clinically Proven Results

Trusted by healthcare professionals, Bisacodyl 5 mg has been widely used in both over-the-counter and prescription formulations for decades due to its efficacy and safety profile.

• Convenient Dosage

The standard 5 mg strength allows flexible dosing, suitable for different levels of constipation and preoperative bowel evacuation protocols.
