Fiberlax Ultra Eff. Granules is a unique combination therapy that combines Ispaghula Husk (3.5 gm), a natural bulk-forming laxative, with Mebeverine Hydrochloride (135 mg), an antispasmodic agent. This dual-action formulation is designed to provide effective relief from constipation while alleviating associated abdominal discomfort, cramps, and bloating, making it particularly useful in patients with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) and functional bowel disorders.

Ispaghula Husk works by absorbing water in the intestines, forming a bulky, soft stool that is easier to pass, promoting regular bowel movements without causing irritation. Mebeverine Hydrochloride helps relax the intestinal smooth muscles, reducing spasms and abdominal pain without affecting normal bowel motility. The effervescent granule form ensures quick dissolution, easy administration, and rapid onset of action.

Composition

• Ispaghula Husk: 3.5 gm

• Mebeverine Hydrochloride: 135 mg

• Dosage Form: Effervescent granules

• Route of Administration: Oral, after dissolving in water

Therapeutic Class

• Gastrointestinal agent

Indications

Fiberlax Ultra Eff. Granules is indicated for:

• Functional Bowel Disorders: Alleviation of abdominal discomfort associated with altered bowel movements

• Preventive Use: Maintaining bowel regularity in patients prone to chronic constipation

Pharmacology

• Ispaghula Husk is a natural fiber that swells in water to form a gel-like substance in the intestines. This bulk increases peristalsis and promotes regular bowel movements while softening the stool. It also helps maintain normal bowel function in patients with chronic constipation.

• Mebeverine Hydrochloride is a smooth muscle relaxant that directly acts on the gut to reduce spasms and abdominal pain. It does not interfere with normal bowel motility or secretion, making it safe for long-term use in managing IBS symptoms.

• The combination of Ispaghula Husk and Mebeverine provides a synergistic effect: the bulk-forming fiber relieves constipation, while the antispasmodic reduces discomfort associated with bowel movement.
