Uses:
Constipation
Medicinal Benefits:
Looz Fibre Granules belongs to a group of medicines known as laxatives used to treat constipation. Looz Fibre Granules is a combination of two drugs; Ispaghula and Lactitol. Ispaghula is a bulk-forming laxative that increases the amount of water in the stool and stool volume, making the stool softer and easier to pass. It can absorb 14 times more water than its weight. Therefore, drink plenty of water while taking Ispaghula husk. On the other hand, Lactitol is a disaccharide sugar. It breaks down into low-molecular-weight organic acids in the colon, increasing the osmotic pressure. This causes an increase in water content in stools and stool volume, making the stool softer and easier to pass and relieving constipation.
Looz Fibre Granules contains Ispaghula and Lactitol. Ispaghula works by absorbing water and makes the stool soft and bulky and easier to pass. Lactitol works by breaking down into low-molecular-weight organic acids in the colon, which increases the osmotic pressure. This causes an increase in water content in stools, and stool volume, thereby makes the stool softer and easier to pass and provides relief from constipation.
Diarrhoea might occur if Looz Fibre Granules is taken in larger doses. Drink lots of fluids and eat fibre-rich food if you experience diarrhoea. If you find blood in your stools (tarry stools) or if you experience excess diarrhoea, consult your doctor. Do not take anti-diarrheal medicine on your own.
Do not take Looz Fibre Granules for more than a week as it might lead to dependency on Looz Fibre Granules for a bowel movement. Taking Looz Fibre Granules for longer durations might also cause dehydration imbalance of fluids and salts in the body which can affect the tightness of muscles in the intestine. If your bowel movement is irregular even after taking Looz Fibre Granules for a week, consult your doctor.
Looz Fibre Granules can be given to children if prescribed by the doctor. The dose and duration depend upon the child’s age and body weight.
Constipation happens when the normal actions of muscle in the large intestine get slowed down, which means the waste part (stools) is not easily eliminated from the body.
