TRANSLUSCENT PEG POWDER

TRANSLUSCENT PEG, containing Polyethylene Glycol (PEG), is widely used as a laxative to treat constipation. PEG is an osmotic laxative that works by retaining water in the stool, resulting in softer stools and easier bowel movements.

Uses

TRANSLUSCENT PEG is primarily used for:

  • Chronic Constipation: It helps in the management of long-term constipation by softening stools and promoting regular bowel movements.
  • Occasional Constipation: Useful for relieving temporary constipation without causing dependency.
  • Pre-Colonoscopy Preparation: Sometimes prescribed to clear the bowels before a colonoscopy or other intestinal procedures.

Dosage

  • For Chronic Constipation: Typically, the dosage ranges from 17 grams (about one heaping tablespoon) dissolved in 4 to 8 ounces of water, juice, soda, coffee, or tea, taken once daily.
  • For Occasional Constipation: The same dosage (17 grams) is used, taken once daily until bowel movements are regular.
  • For Bowel Preparation: The dosage and regimen are prescribed by the healthcare provider based on individual needs, usually involving higher doses taken at specific intervals.

Side Effects

Common side effects of TRANSLUSCENT PEG include:

  • Gas: Increased gas formation is common.
  • Nausea: Mild nausea may occur, especially at the start of the treatment.
  • Diarrhea: Overuse can lead to diarrhea.

Severe side effects (rare):

  • Severe Diarrhea: Excessive loss of fluids and electrolytes.
  • Allergic Reactions: Symptoms include rash, itching, swelling, dizziness, and difficulty breathing.

Price

The price of TRANSLUSCENT PEG varies depending on the brand, quantity, and pharmacy. On average, a standard container (about 500 grams) costs between $10 to $20. It's advisable to compare prices across different pharmacies or online retailers for the best deals.

Composition

  • Active Ingredient: Polyethylene Glycol (PEG)
  • Inactive Ingredients: Usually, TRANSLUSCENT PEG contains minimal inactive ingredients, primarily consisting of PEG without additional additives or flavorings.

  • Drug Interactions: TRANSLUSCENT PEG can interact with certain medications.
