Description
Medical device for chronic constipation in adults and children.
Macrogol is neither absorbed nor fermented in the intestine, does not irritate the mucous membrane, and is eliminated in the feces. In fact, due to its affinity with water, through osmotic action, it softens the stool, facilitating evacuation without causing cramps, abdominal pain, or emergency conditions. Its effectiveness is not reduced over time.
Furthermore, the simethicone present in the formulation, thanks to its anti-foaming action, is effective in absorbing gastrointestinal gas associated with constipation.

How to use
Children from 1 to 6 years: 1 sachet per day.
Adults and children from 6 years: 2 sachets per day.
It is recommended to take the product between meals. If conditions persist even after taking the product, consult your doctor. Take the product directly from the sachet or dilute the product in a small amount of water first.

Components
Macrogol 4,000, simethicone; excipients: water, sucralose, orange flavor, vegetable glycerin, polysorbate 80, sucrose esters, potassium sorbate.

Warnings
Do not take Redipeg in case of:
- intestinal stenosis;
- intestinal perforation;
- irritable bowel syndrome (e.g. Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis).
Do not take in case of intestinal obstruction.
There is no experience with taking it during pregnancy and breastfeeding, so it is recommended to take Redipeg only when necessary, on medical advice. In patients with real impairment, no dosage adjustment is necessary. The duration of treatment with Redipeg should not exceed 2 weeks. If necessary, the treatment can be repeated. Prolonged use may be necessary in cases of refractory and/or chronic constipation. This type of refractory constipation can be caused by medications, painkillers (opioids) and medications for the treatment of Parkinson's (anticholinergics), or occur in the case of diseases such as multiple sclerosis or Parkinson's disease.
Sometimes gastrointestinal disturbances, borborygmi, abdominal pain, nausea, and mild diarrhea may appear (especially at the beginning). Rarely, hypersensitivity reactions (rash and urticaria) may occur. However, if intolerance or other side effects occur, stop treatment immediately and consult your doctor. If symptoms persist, consult your doctor.
When ingested concomitantly with other drugs, Redipeg could modify their bioavailability. In particular, the osmotic power of macrogol and the increased speed of induced gastrointestinal transit can negatively affect their effectiveness. Therefore, the product should be taken at least 2 hours after the administration of oral drugs or food supplements. In any case, consult your doctor before taking Redipeg if you are undergoing other therapies.
Do not use if the sachet is damaged.

Do not use the product under 1 year of age.
Before using the product in children, it is advisable to consult your doctor.

In case of pregnancy or breastfeeding, take the product only if necessary and after consulting a doctor. During treatment with Redipeg, it is advisable to follow an adequate diet and take oral rehydration solutions (ORS) to prevent dehydration.
It is also advisable to consult your doctor. Do not use Redipeg for more than 30 consecutive days; if symptoms persist, consult your doctor. Do not take in case of intolerance to the product.
