Laxikem Plus Syrup is a prescription combination medicine containing three laxatives used to treat constipation, piles, and associated abdominal discomfort and acidity. 
Active Ingredients
Laxikem Plus Syrup is a combination of three active ingredients that work together: 
  • Liquid Paraffin (1.25ml/5ml): A lubricant laxative that helps retain water and fat in the stools, making them soft and easier to pass smoothly through the intestines.
  • Magnesium Hydroxide (Milk of Magnesia) (3.75ml/5ml): An osmotic laxative that works by drawing water into the intestines, increasing stool volume and promoting bowel evacuation. It also helps to neutralize stomach acid, providing relief from heartburn.
  • Sodium Picosulfate (3.33mg/5ml): A stimulant laxative that increases the wave-like movements (peristalsis) of the intestines, pushing the stools forward and creating an urge to pass stools. 
Uses and Benefits
Laxikem Plus Syrup provides effective relief from a range of digestive issues: 
  • Constipation Relief: Promotes bowel movements and helps empty the bowels.
  • Piles & Anal Fissures: Relieves pain and discomfort associated with constipation that can cause piles (hemorrhoids) and anal fissures.
  • Acidity & Heartburn: The milk of magnesia component helps manage symptoms of acidity and sour stomach.
  • Bowel Clearance: Sometimes used before medical procedures like endoscopies or radioscopies to clear the bowels. 
Key Information and Safety
  • Administration: Shake the bottle well before each use. Measure the dose with a measuring cup and take it orally, preferably at bedtime, as it typically works within 6 to 12 hours.
  • Hydration: Drink plenty of fluids (at least 6-8 glasses of water) while using this medicine to prevent dehydration and enhance its effects.
  • Short-term Use: This medicine is intended for short-term use. Do not use it for more than a week unless advised by a doctor, as prolonged use can lead to dependency for bowel movements and electrolyte imbalance.
  • Medical Conditions: Avoid use if you have kidney disease, intestinal obstruction, appendicitis, or undiagnosed abdominal pain.
  • Alcohol: Avoid or limit alcohol consumption as it may impact the drug’s effectiveness and increase side effects. 
Common Side Effects
Most side effects are generally mild and temporary: 
  • Diarrhea
  • Abdominal cramps or discomfort
  • Nausea and vomiting
  • Headache
  • Muscle weakness
