Medicinal Benefits

Evalex-L Powder belongs to a group of medicines known as laxatives used to treat constipation. Evalex-L Powder is a combination of two drugs; Ispaghula and Lactitol. Ispaghula is a bulk-forming laxative that increases the amount of water in the stool and stool volume, making the stool softer and easier to pass. It can absorb 14 times more water than its weight. Therefore, drink plenty of water while taking Ispaghula husk. On the other hand, Lactitol is a disaccharide sugar. It breaks down into low-molecular-weight organic acids in the colon, increasing the osmotic pressure. This causes an increase in water content in stools and stool volume, making the stool softer and easier to pass and relieving constipation.
