Hello Ma'am,

Yes, and it is a very simple product to use.

It is PEG3350, which is found in Lax-A-Day or Relaxa. It is a powder that is used once a day.

Usually, the effect is felt in less than 4 to 5 days.

Happy day,

Alexandre Chagnon, pharmacist

I worked as a pharmacist in the emergency department of the Granby Hospital for 6 years before dedicating myself to Ask your Pharmacist. I completed my education in telehealth at Jefferson University in Philadelphia and are recently completed a Postgraduate Diploma in Health Informatics at Université de Sherbrooke.
