Introduction

Pegxit Oral Solution is a combination medicine used in the treatment of constipation. The medicine works by drawing water into the intestines and softening the stool, which promotes bowel movements. It also helps in maintaining electrolyte balance and neutralizing stomach acid.

Take this medicine in the dose and duration as advised by your doctor. Check the label for directions before use. Measure it with a measuring cup and take it by mouth. Shake well before use. Pegxit Oral Solution may be taken with or without food but it is better to take it at a fixed time.

Pegxit Oral Solution contains potassium chloride, sodium chloride, sodium bicarbonate, and polyethylene glycol. Potassium chloride works by raising potassium levels in your blood. Sodium chloride is a purified salt solution which works by replenishing salt and electrolyte levels in the body. Sodium bicarbonate is an alkalizer. It works by increasing the pH of blood and urine thereby correcting metabolic acidosis (high acid levels in the body). It also speeds up the removal of toxic substances from the body in certain types of poisoning. In case of excessive fluid loss (such as in diarrhea) it works by replenishing salt and electrolyte levels. Polyethylene glycol works by drawing water into the intestine through osmosis which makes the stool soft and easier to pass. It also helps clean out the intestines prior to medical procedures or examination.

Do not take Pegxit Oral Solution if you have kidney, heart problems, high blood pressure or high blood potassium level. Take Pegxit Oral Solution at least 2 hours after taking other medicines as it may interfere with the absorption of other medicines. Inform your doctor if you have a history of stomach disorders such as appendicitis or a blockage in your bowel. Pegxit Oral Solution is usually taken once a day as needed for up to 2 weeks. Take it exactly as prescribed by the doctor. Take Pegxit Oral Solution at a fixed time.
