WHAT BEKUNIS LAXATIVE DRAGÉES IS
USED FOR
For short term use in cases of
constipation of varying causes,
conditions in need of easy bowel
movements and for clearing or
emptying the intestinal tract for
diagnostic and therapeutic measures.
HOW BEKUNIS LAXATIVE DRAGÈES
WORKS
Senna contains anthracene. These
have a laxative effect. This effect is
based mainly on an influencing of big
intestine movement. This results in an
accelerated passage through the
intestines and, due to the shortened
contact time, in a reduction of the
absorption of liquid.
