Characteristic
1. This product is a natural herbal laxative made with senna leaves.
2. Sennoside A and B, the active ingredients in senna leaves, are activated by intestinal bacteria and increase intestinal peristalsis to promote bowel movements.
3. This product works for treating constipation which cannot be relieved by other herbal laxatives (rhubarb, licorice, etc.).
4. Constipation is often caused by weakened intestinal peristalsis due to stress or fatigue. It is recommended to take the medicine together with vitamin B1 to promote bowel movements.
5. Since intestinal bacteria are important to activate sennoside, do not use medicines which reduce intestinal bacteria such as antibiotics during the medication. -
