About Freelex Syrup
Freelex Syrup belongs to the group of medicines called laxatives used to treat constipation. Constipation refers to infrequent bowel movements in which the stools are often dry, painful and hard to pass. Symptoms include bloating, abdominal pain, and feeling as if the bowel movement is incomplete.
Freelex Syrup contains magnesium hydroxide (osmotic laxative) and liquid paraffin (lubricant). Magnesium hydroxide works by drawing water into the intestine through osmosis, while liquid paraffin has lubricant properties that help retain water in the stools. Together, they make the stool soft making it easier to pass.

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.
Do not take Freelex Syrup if you're allergic to any ingredient in it. Do not take Freelex Syrup for more than a week as it might cause dependency on Freelex Syrup for a bowel movement. Talk to your doctor if you notice any sudden changes in bowel habits that persist for over two weeks. Consult your doctor before taking Freelex Syrup if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Freelex Syrup to be given with caution to children if recommended by the doctor.
