What it is and what it is used for
KELEMATA HERBAL TEA is a laxative. Short-term treatment of occasional constipation.

Presence of acute or unknown abdominal pain, nausea or vomiting, intestinal obstruction or stenosis, rectal bleeding of unknown origin, severe dehydration.

Warnings and precautions
The treatment of chronic or recurrent constipation always requires the intervention of a doctor for diagnosis, prescription of drugs and monitoring during therapy. Consult your doctor when the need for a laxative arises from a sudden change in previous bowel habits (characteristic frequency of bowel movements) that lasts more than 2 weeks, when constipation is stubborn and when the use of the laxative fails to produce effects.

Laxative abuse (frequent or prolonged use or with excessive doses) can cause persistent diarrhea with consequent loss of water, mineral salts (especially potassium) and other essential nutrients.
In the most severe cases, dehydration or hypokalemia (decrease in blood potassium) may occur, which can lead to cardiac or neuromuscular dysfunctions, especially in case of concomitant treatment with cardiac glycosides, diuretics or corticosteroids.
The abuse of laxatives, especially contact laxatives (stimulant laxatives), can cause dependence (and, therefore, possible need to progressively increase the dosage), chronic constipation and loss of normal bowel functions (intestinal atony). First of all, it should be noted that, in most cases, a balanced diet rich in water and fiber (bran, vegetables and fruit) can permanently solve the problem of constipation.

Many people think they suffer from constipation if they cannot have a bowel movement every day. This is a mistaken belief, as this situation is completely normal for a large number of individuals. Instead, consider that constipation occurs when bowel movements are reduced compared to personal habits and are associated with the emission of hard stools.
If episodes of constipation occur repeatedly or if you have noticed any recent changes in their characteristics, you should consult your doctor.

Possible side effects
KELEMATA HERBAL TEA can cause side effects. Adhering to the instructions reduces the risk of such effects.
Occasionally: isolated cramp-like pain or abdominal cramps, more frequent in cases of severe constipation.
With the use of the product, urine sometimes turns slightly yellow-brown or red. This coloration is simply due to the presence of senna components in the urine and is not clinically significant.
Continuous use of laxatives can lead to addiction or various types of damage.
These effects are generally transient. If they occur, it is advisable to consult your doctor or pharmacist.
It is important to inform your doctor or pharmacist of the appearance of side effects not described in the package.
