About Piclin Kid Oral Solution

Piclin Kid Oral Solution belongs to the group of medicines called laxatives used to treat constipation associated with piles, anal fissure, hernia, cardiovascular disorder, endoscopy, bowel clearance before radioscopy, pre/post-operative conditions, elderly and bed-ridden patients. Constipation refers to infrequent bowel movements in which the stools are often dry, painful, and hard to pass. 

Piclin Kid Oral Solution consists of 'Sodium picosulphate' that prevents the absorption of water in the colon/intestine, thereby stimulating the propulsive (pushing forward) activity, which in turn promotes accumulation of water providing stool can pass with ease. Thus, it relieves constipation. 

You can take Piclin Kid Oral Solution with or without food. You are advised to take Piclin Kid Oral Solution for as long as your doctor has prescribed it for you, depending on your medical condition. You may experience certain common side-effects such as diarrhoea, abdominal discomfort, pain, or cramps in some cases. Most of these side-effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if you experience these side-effects persistently.

To treat your condition effectually, continue taking Piclin Kid Oral Solution for as long as your doctor has prescribed. Drink plenty of fluids (at least 6-8 glasses) while taking Piclin Kid Oral Solution to prevent dehydration.
