Product Details:

Each pack contains 4 x 5ml single-dose rectal microenemas (polyethylene tubes with either a standard or shortened nozzle and a breakable seal).

Composition:

Microlax® contains:

1. Sodium citrate: Displaces bound water in fecal matter.
2. Sodium lauryl sulfoacetate: Liquefies intestinal contents.
3. Sorbitol: Enhances laxative effect by increasing water absorption into the intestines. This increased water content softens stool and facilitates bowel movement.

Instructions for Use:

1. Break the seal on the nozzle.
2. Gently squeeze the tube to lubricate the nozzle tip with Microlax®.
3. Insert the nozzle fully and squeeze the tube to empty its contents.
4. While continuing to squeeze, gently remove the nozzle.
