pharmachologic effect

Combined remedy.

Sodium picosulfate has a local laxative effect in the colon.

Magnesium citrate acts as an osmotic laxative by retaining water in the colon. Colon cleansing results from a powerful 'flushing' effect combined with stimulation of peristalsis.

Pharmacokinetics

All components have a local effect in the colon and are practically not absorbed.

Side effect

From the immune system: anaphylactic reactions, hypersensitivity.

From the side of metabolism: hyponatremia, hypokalemia.

From the nervous system: headache, epilepsy, a large seizure (without hyponatremia), convulsions, confusion.

From the gastrointestinal tract: nausea, proctalgia, vomiting, diarrhea, abdominal pain.

Skin and subcutaneous tissue disorders: rash (including erythematous and maculopapular), urticaria, pruritus, purpura.

Application during pregnancy and lactation

Not recommended for use in the first trimester of pregnancy. Reception during the II and III trimesters of pregnancy is possible only after a thorough assessment of the need and risks.

It is prescribed with caution during breastfeeding.

Application for impaired renal function

The use is contraindicated in severe renal impairment.

Application in children

The use is contraindicated in children under 9 years of age.

Use in elderly patients

With caution in the elderly (65 years and older) and debilitated patients.

special instructions

Not intended for use as a regular laxative.

In patients with signs of hyponatremia, it is necessary to take urgent measures to restore water and electrolyte balance.

Contains potassium bicarbonate, which should be taken into account in patients on a low-potassium diet.

In patients with a significant decrease in renal function, plasma magnesium may increase. Inadequate intake of water and electrolytes can cause a clinically significant deficiency of these components, especially in debilitated patients.

The preparation period for bowel cleansing should not exceed 24 hours; a longer period increases the risk of imbalance in water and electrolyte balance.

Influence on the ability to drive vehicles and mechanisms

Due to the possibility of side effects from the nervous system, care should be taken when driving vehicles and engaging in other potentially hazardous activities that require increased concentration of attention and speed of psychomotor reactions.

Drug interactions

This combination can affect the absorption of continuous oral medications (antiepileptic drugs, hypoglycemic drugs, oral contraceptives, antibiotics).

Concomitant use with diuretics, corticosteroids or cardiac glycosides increases the risk of hypokalemia.

Concomitant use with NSAIDs, as well as with drugs that can cause a syndrome of inappropriate antidiuretic hormone secretion or salt wasting syndrome (for example, tricyclic antidepressants, selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, antipsychotics and carbamazepine) increases the risk of imbalance in water and electrolyte balance.
