Dicopeg Junior – Macrogol 3350 Osmotic Laxative Sachets for Children
Dicopeg Junior by Dicofarm is a medical device in powder sachet form, containing Macrogol 3350 (5g per sachet) — the same active ingredient as Movicol and Laxido. It works through osmotic action to naturally regulate intestinal function in babies and children, softening stools and facilitating easy, pain-free defecation. Not absorbed by the body, does not ferment in the intestine, and its effectiveness does not decrease with prolonged use.
How It Works
Macrogol 3350 is a hydrophilic (water-attracting) polymer that retains water within the stool, softening it and making it easier to pass. It acts purely through osmotic effect — it is not absorbed into the bloodstream, does not irritate the intestinal mucosa, and is excreted unchanged in the faeces. Unlike stimulant laxatives, Macrogol does not cause cramping, abdominal pain, or sudden urgency.
Key Benefits
- Macrogol 3350 — 5g per sachet — clinically proven osmotic laxative
- Gentle, natural action — no cramping, pain, or sudden urgency
- Not absorbed — does not enter the bloodstream
- Effectiveness does not decrease over time — safe for ongoing use under medical supervision
- Suitable from 6 months of age
- Dissolves in any liquid — water, tea, milk, juice, or broth
- Gluten-free
- By Dicofarm — leading Italian paediatric pharmaceutical company
