Mannitolo f.u. - laxative stick 10 g

Product Description

Panel for occasional constipation

Indications

When taken orally, Mannitol F.U. acts as an osmotic laxative, drawing water into the intestinal lumen and increasing the volume and softness of the stool.
The increase in fecal volume in turn represents a powerful stimulus for intestinal peristalsis (a set of rhythmic propulsive contractions responsible for the advancement of the stool towards the outside).
Also taken orally, Mannitol F.U. can be used as an alternative sweetener to traditional sucrose.
Its sweetening power is in fact equal to approximately 50% of that of table sugar, with the advantage of being low-calorie and non-cariogenic, and with an insulin-independent metabolism (a particularly useful characteristic in the presence of diabetes); however, its laxative effect limits its use in this sense.
