Description

Picoprep effervescent powder with orange flavor has a laxative effect. The effect of the drug is manifested in a strong washing effect, which is combined with the effect of stimulating intestinal peristalsis, which causes its use to clean the intestine before conducting radiographic studies, colonoscopy or surgical procedures.

Active ingredients

Sodium picosulfate + Magnesium oxide light + Citric acid anhydrous

Composition

Magnesium oxide - 3.5 g, citric acid anhydrous - 12.0 g, sodium picosulfate monohydrate - 10 mg; Auxiliary in-va: potassium bicarbonate, sodium saccharinate dihydrate, orange flavor (dry extract of orange, lactose, xanthine gum. Ascorbic to-that, butylhydroxyanisol E320).

Pharmacological effect

The active ingredients of Picoprep are sodium picosulphate, which has a local laxative effect in the large intestine, and magnesium citrate, which is formed from citric acid and magnesium oxide when the powder is dissolved and acts as an osmotic laxative by retaining water in the large intestine. Intestinal cleansing occurs as a result of a powerful “scrubbing out” effect in combination with stimulation of peristalsis, which is necessary for radiological or endoscopic (colonoscopy) studies and surgical manipulations.

Pharmacokinetics

All active ingredients have a local action in the colon and are practically not absorbed.

Indications

To clean the intestines before X-ray examinations, endoscopy or before surgery.

Interaction with other drugs

Since Picoprep is a laxative, it increases the rate of gastrointestinal transit.

The effectiveness of the drug Picoprep decreases while taking with laxatives, increasing the volume of intestinal contents.
