Laxido Paediatric Plain contains macrogol 3350 and the electrolytes sodium chloride, sodium
hydrogen carbonate and potassium chloride.
Laxido Paediatric Plain is a laxative used for the treatment of chronic constipation in children
aged 1 to 11 years. It is also used to treat a build up of hard faeces in the bowel in children aged
5 to 11 years, which may be a result of long-term constipation (this is known as faecal
impaction). Macrogol 3350 makes your child’s faeces softer and easier to pass, giving them
relief from constipation. The electrolytes help to maintain the body’s normal levels of sodium,
potassium and water while your child is being treated for constipation.
