Medical Description
Pegred C oral powder is a bowel-cleansing and electrolyte solution used to empty the bowel before certain procedures, and may support bowel movements when a clinician recommends it for constipation. It contains a combination of polyethylene glycol, which holds water in the bowel, and sodium chloride, potassium chloride, sodium bicarbonate and anhydrous sodium sulphate, which provide or balance body salts during bowel emptying. The solution draws water into the intestine, loosens bowel contents and promotes watery bowel movements while helping limit salt shifts. Pegred powder is prepared in drinking water and taken by mouth exactly as directed by a healthcare professional; it is not a routine hydration drink.
