Reference

About Piclin Solution

Piclin Solution belongs to the group of medicines called stimulant laxatives used to treat short-term, occasional constipation. Constipation refers to infrequent bowel movements in which the stools are often dry, painful and hard to pass. Symptoms include incomplete bowel movements, dry, hard stools, which are difficult to pass.

Piclin Solution contains ‘sodium picosulphate’, which stimulates mucosa in the large intestine and encourages the muscles in the bowel to move waste easily; this increases bowel motility. Thereby, Piclin Solution helps in providing relief from constipation. Piclin Solution may also be used to clear the bowel before medical examinations such as colonoscopy or surgery.

Take Piclin Solution as prescribed. In some cases, Piclin Solution may cause common side effects, such as diarrhoea, abdominal pain/cramps, and abdominal discomfort. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if you experience these side effects persistently.

Consult your doctor before taking Piclin Solution if you are pregnant or breastfeeding. Do not take Piclin Solution for more than a week as it might cause dependency on Piclin Solution for a bowel movement. Drink plenty of fluids whilst taking Piclin Solution to prevent dehydration. Piclin Solution should be given to children only if prescribed by the doctor.
