Citrafleet

Citrafleet is a combination of sodium picosulfate, magnesium oxide, and citric acid used for bowel cleansing before medical procedures. This oral solution is designed to prepare the intestines for colonoscopy or surgery.

Citrafleet is primarily used for bowel cleansing to clear the intestines before colonoscopy, surgery, or other medical procedures. It works by stimulating bowel movements and flushing out the digestive tract. This medication is often prescribed when a clear view of the intestines is necessary for accurate diagnosis or treatment.

Common effects of Citrafleet may include frequent bowel movements, abdominal cramping, and bloating. These effects are typically temporary and subside once the bowel cleansing process is complete. Staying hydrated can help manage these effects.

Citrafleet should be used under medical supervision. It is important to follow the prescribed dosage and instructions carefully. Patients with a history of severe bowel disorders or electrolyte imbalances should consult their healthcare provider before use.

Citrafleet may interact with certain medications, including diuretics and other bowel preparations. It is advisable to inform your healthcare provider about all medications you are taking. Alcohol should be avoided during the bowel cleansing process.
