Glycerine Monot Adultes P&g Health France S.A.S.

Glycerine Monot Adultes P&g Health France S.A.S. is an over‑the‑counter rectal preparation that contains glycerol as its sole active ingredient. It is marketed in the European Union and is classified as an osmotic laxative (ATC code A06AD02). The product works by drawing water into the intestinal lumen to soften stool and promote rectal evacuation. It is supplied without a specified strength, intended for adult use and can be used as needed for occasional constipation.

Glycerine Monot Adultes is indicated for the temporary relief of constipation in adults.

- Relief of occasional constipation when dietary measures are insufficient. - Softening of hard stools to facilitate easier bowel movements. - Preparation for bowel evacuation prior to diagnostic procedures such as colonoscopy. - Adjunctive use in patients with reduced intestinal motility. - Short‑term management of bowel irregularities in the elderly.

Side effects of glycerol rectal preparations are generally mild, but patients should be aware of both common and rare serious reactions.

Common: - Mild rectal irritation or burning sensation. - Slight abdominal cramping or discomfort. - Transient diarrhea or loose stools.

Serious: - Severe rectal bleeding. - Persistent abdominal pain. - Allergic reactions such as rash, swelling, or difficulty breathing.

Before using Glycerine Monot Adultes, consider the following precautions to ensure safe and appropriate use.

- Do not use if you have a known hypersensitivity to glycerol or any excipients. - Avoid prolonged or excessive use, as it may lead to electrolyte imbalance. - Use with caution in patients with inflammatory bowel disease, rectal lesions, or recent rectal surgery. - Pregnant or breastfeeding individuals should consult a healthcare professional before use. - Keep the product out of reach of children; accidental ingestion may cause gastrointestinal upset. - Discontinue use and seek medical advice if symptoms persist beyond 48 hours.

Glycerine Monot Adultes may interact with certain medications or substances; awareness of these interactions helps prevent adverse effects.

Avoid: - Concurrent use with other osmotic or stimulant laxatives, which can increase the risk of dehydration and electrolyte disturbances. - Use with oral or rectal medications that may be absorbed more rapidly due to increased intestinal water content.

Use with caution: - Anticholinergic agents that reduce intestinal motility, potentially diminishing the laxative effect. - Diuretic therapy, as combined fluid loss may affect electrolyte balance. - Mineral supplements (e.g., calcium, magnesium) that could alter stool consistency.
