Microlax enema acts as a laxative due to its faecal softening and lubricant properties. It's used for the evacuation of the colon in constipation, or before surgical and diagnostic procedures, or in obstetrics before delivery. The product softens hard, compacted stool simply and hygienically, allowing for a normal bowel movement. Microlax acts locally in the rectum, which means there's a low risk of dependence and limited side effects. It provides fast-acting relief from constipation, allowing for normal bowel movements.
