Senna Laxative Tablets

Senna Laxative Tablets - When you're constipated, undigested waste builds up - waste you may be carrying around with you for several days. It may seem easier to wait for it to go away, but, suffering long periods without passing a bowel movement can cause your bowel wall to stretch and the muscles to work less efficiently. Pain and straining from the passage of hard, dry stools is frequently associated with constipation, as are excessive gas and bloating.

How Senna Lexatives Work

Changing your diet is a great idea, but life just isn't always that simple. Sometimes your digestive system can do with a helping hand to get back to normal. Senna, a natural plant extract, works by stimulating the muscles in the bowel in a similar way to figs and prunes. Helping to bring gentle, predictable relief, Senna Laxative Tablets take 8-12 hours to work with your body, leaving you feeling much fresher and brighter again.

How can you sell this item for so much less than my local chemist?

We keep our overheads to a minimum, ensure the margins added are fair and work on larger sale volumes than a local chemist. All these measures provide major cost saving benefits to the consumer. Our prices on this medication are based on the non branded version of Senokot and dulcolax. Senokot's and dulcolax's active ingredient is Sennosides which is what actually provides the desired effects.

Does your medication give me the same effect as the branded version?

Absolutely. When a pharmaceutical company develops a drug it is given unique rights to sell it for a number of years. Once that ends any company can make it providing they meet the regulations. Therefore, over the counter drugs have identical medical properties regardless of brand, packaging and advertising.

The key is the ‘active' ingredient - the chemical that actually treats the symptom.  Protections and quality control apply equally to all branded and non branded products. The non branded product must meet the same quality standards as the branded version. Packaging may vary, but the items are identical and the results will be the same.

Dr. Chris Steele GP, the resident Doctor on ITV1's This Morning agrees:

“The key is the active ingredient. Look on the brand you know, note the active ingredient and then check it's the same one at the same dose as the generic brand."
