    Description

    Dulcoease 100mg is a popular choice for individuals seeking gentle relief from occasional constipation. Each packet contains 30 soft gel capsules, each containing 100 milligrams of docusate sodium, the active ingredient responsible for its effectiveness.

    Dosage: Take one Dulcoease 100mg soft gel capsule with a full glass of water (240 ml) by mouth.
    Timing: It is generally recommended to take Dulcoease 100mg at bedtime to allow it to work overnight and produce a bowel movement in the morning.

    Do Not Crush or Chew: Do not crush, chew, or break the soft gel capsule. Swallow it whole for best results.
    Avoid Taking with Milk or Dairy Products: Do not take Dulcoease 100mg with milk or dairy products, as they may reduce its effectiveness.

    Ingredients

    Dulcoease 100mg's active ingredient is docusate sodium, a stool softener. It works by increasing the amount of water that the stool absorbs in the intestine, making it softer and easier to pass. This helps alleviate constipation and promotes regular bowel movements.

    Side effects

    Dulcoease 100mg is generally well-tolerated, but some individuals may experience mild side effects. These side effects are typically temporary and may include:
    Stomach Cramps: Some users may experience mild stomach cramps or discomfort.
    Diarrhea: In rare cases, Dulcoease 100mg may lead to loose stools or diarrhea.
    Nausea: A few users may experience nausea or a sensation of being unwell.
    If you encounter severe or persistent side effects, consult your healthcare provider promptly.

    Warnings

    To ensure the safe and effective use of Dulcoease 100mg, consider the following warnings and precautions:
    Consult a Healthcare Professional: If you are pregnant, breastfeeding, have any underlying medical conditions, or are currently taking other medications, consult a healthcare provider before using Dulcoease 100mg.
    Laxative Dependency: Avoid long-term or excessive use of Dulcoease 100mg, as it may lead to laxative dependency. If constipation persists, consult a healthcare professional.
    Rectal Bleeding: If you experience rectal bleeding or suspect a more severe condition, such as colorectal cancer, consult a healthcare professional for proper evaluation and diagnosis.
