Characteristics
CE medical device. Macrogol is an inert water-soluble polymer with a high molecular weight that has the ability to bind to the water used for intake by retaining it in the faeces. It determines a rehydration and softening of the fecal mass and facilitates its evacuation. Accelerates intestinal transit by promoting peristalsis. It is not absorbed or metabolized in the gastrointestinal tract and does not lead to water and electrolyte imbalances, if taken with the indicated dose of liquid.

Warnings
Keep out of the reach and sight of children.
Administration to children should be carried out under the direct supervision of an adult.
Do not use if package is opened or damaged.
There is insufficient information on the use of SaniPeg during pregnancy or breastfeeding, therefore its intake in such circumstances should only be done under medical supervision.
The product may reduce the residence time in the intestine and therefore the absorption of oral medicines.
It is therefore advisable to consult your doctor in case of simultaneous intake of oral medicines, which must in any case be administered at a distance of at least 2 hours.
In case of unwanted reactions, stop the treatment and consult your doctor.
