Picolax 7.5 mg Tablets are an oral laxative containing sodium picosulfate 7.5 mg per tablet. The medicine is intended for the short-term relief of constipation by stimulating natural movement of the large intestine.

Sodium picosulfate is a locally acting stimulant laxative. After activation by bacteria in the colon, it stimulates the intestinal lining and promotes peristalsis, helping move stool through the bowel.

Each blister contains 10 tablets, making Picolax convenient for short-term treatment of occasional constipation.

Active Ingredient

Each Tablet Contains:

Sodium Picosulfate – 7.5 mg

Drug Class: Stimulant / Contact Laxative
ATC: A06AB08

How Sodium Picosulfate Works

Sodium picosulfate reaches the large intestine, where intestinal bacteria convert it into its active form. The active metabolite stimulates the mucosa of the colon, increasing intestinal movement and promoting bowel evacuation.

Uses

Picolax 7.5 mg Tablets are used for:

• Short-term relief of constipation
• Occasional difficulty passing stool
• Situations where stimulation of bowel evacuation is medically appropriate

Important Clarification

I would remove the statement in your original description that these tablets are “ideal before diagnostic procedures.”

There is another medicine sold under the Picolax name that is specifically designed for bowel cleansing before colonoscopy, X-ray, endoscopy, or surgery. That product is a powder for oral solution containing sodium picosulfate + magnesium oxide + citric acid, and it is different from these 7.5 mg sodium picosulfate tablets.

For your Shopify listing, I would market the 7.5 mg tablets specifically for constipation relief, not colonoscopy preparation.

Directions for Use

Take orally with water according to the package leaflet or healthcare professional's directions.

A commonly listed adult dosage for this 7.5 mg product is 1–2 tablets daily, preferably at bedtime.

Use the lowest effective dose and avoid prolonged daily use unless advised by a healthcare professional.

If constipation persists, repeatedly returns, or is accompanied by significant abdominal pain, vomiting, fever, or blood in the stool, medical evaluation is recommended.
