How AC Oral Solution works
AC Lax Plus Syrup Orange Sugar Free contains potassium chloride, sodium chloride, sodium bicarbonate, and polyethylene glycol. Potassium chloride works by raising potassium levels in your blood. Sodium chloride is a purified salt solution which works by replenishing salt and electrolyte levels in the body. Sodium bicarbonate is an alkalizer. It works by increasing the pH of blood and urine, thereby correcting metabolic acidosis (high acid levels in the body). It also speeds up the removal of toxic substances from the body in certain types of poisoning. In case of excessive fluid loss (such as in diarrhea), it works by replenishing salt and electrolyte levels. Polyethylene glycol works by drawing water into the intestine through osmosis, which makes the stool soft and easier to pass. It also helps clean out the intestines prior to medical procedures or examination.
