Description
Alophen Enteric Coated Stimulant Laxative Tablets provide gentle, predictable relief from occasional constipation with advanced enteric coating technology. Each tablet contains 5mg of bisacodyl, a trusted stimulant laxative that works by increasing muscle contractions in the intestines. The special enteric coating ensures the tablet passes through the stomach intact and dissolves in the intestines where it's needed most, reducing stomach irritation and providing more comfortable relief. This professional-strength formula is designed for adults who need reliable overnight constipation relief. The 100-tablet bottle offers exceptional value for occasional use. Alophen tablets work within 6-10 hours, making them perfect for bedtime dosing. The enteric coating technology makes this formula gentler on the stomach compared to uncoated stimulant laxatives. Trusted by healthcare professionals, Alophen provides dependable results when you need them most.
