Adlax Syrup

ADLAX Syrup is a Sodium Picosulfate Syrup B.P., a stimulant laxative formulated to provide effective and predictable relief from constipation. It works by stimulating bowel movements and promoting natural evacuation, helping restore regular bowel function with gentle action.

Indications and Clinical Use
