Prucasoft 1 Mg 14 Tablets

Description:

Prucasoft 1 mg 14 tablets is a prescription medicine containing prucalopride, a selective high-affinity 5-HT4 receptor agonist used for the treatment of chronic constipation. It works by stimulating colonic motility and enhancing bowel movements, helping patients who do not respond adequately to traditional laxatives. Prucasoft is formulated as film-coated tablets for oral use and is intended for adults under the supervision of a healthcare professional.

Indications:

• Treatment of chronic constipation in adults when laxatives do not provide adequate relief.
• Management of infrequent bowel movements associated with chronic constipation.
• Relief of symptoms related to chronic constipation such as hard stools, straining, and a feeling of incomplete evacuation.

Active Ingredients / Key Components:

• Prucalopride – 1 mg per film-coated tablet.
• Excipients: film-coating and tablet core excipients (full excipient list and concentrations , please check the product leaflet or the manufacturer’s official website; please refer to the official package leaflet).

Dosage & Administration / How to Use:

• Prucasoft 1 mg tablets are for oral use only and should be taken as directed by a physician.
• Usual adult dose (general reference): often 2 mg once daily for adults; however, dosing may be adjusted based on age, kidney or liver function, and clinical response. The exact prescribed dose and duration must be determined by the treating doctor.
• Tablets may be taken with or without food, swallowed whole with a glass of water. Do not crush or chew unless your doctor or pharmacist advises otherwise.
• Take the tablet at the same time each day to maintain a consistent effect.
• If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember unless it is nearly time for the next dose. Do not double the dose to make up for a missed tablet.
• Do not exceed the prescribed daily dose. Long-term use should be regularly reviewed by a healthcare professional.

Clinical Benefits:

• Enhances colonic motility by stimulating 5-HT4 receptors, promoting more regular bowel movements.
• Helps normalize bowel habits in patients with chronic constipation who have not responded adequately to standard laxatives.
