Nova Argentia Paraffina 500ml

Laxative indicated to treat occasional constipation in adults and children from 6 years. It helps to soften the faecal mass and facilitate its sliding along the intestinal tract, particularly in the case of diverticula. It also helps to avoid straining during defecation in cases such as hernia, hypertension, anorectal vascular disorders, in the presence of haemorrhoids or abdominal, intestinal or rectal surgery, or after abdominal surgery. Prevent difficulty during defecation and consequent potentially painful abdominal compressions.

To prevent constipation, it is important to maintain a good water intake and eat a balanced diet, rich in vegetables and fruit, as well as whole grains to promote bowel regularity. These foods provide both soluble and insoluble fibre, both of which are necessary for the digestive system.

Exercising regularly is also advisable. Fibre-rich food supplements or plant extracts can also provide additional support. On the other hand, laxative medications (oral or enemas/suppositories) can alleviate occasional constipation and provide fast relief. These medications are not suitable in certain situations. Consulting a healthcare professional is recommended.

If it is a recurrent problem, consult a healthcare professional for a correct diagnosis and follow-up treatment appropriate to your needs.
